Defender 'a little unhappy' to be leaving Bordeaux

Lazio have completed the capture of defender Michael Ciani from Bordeaux, the Serie A club have confirmed. According to the Biancocelesti's official website, the 28-year-old France international will be presented at the club's training ground on Monday afternoon. Ciani told the Corriere dello Sport: "I'm happy to join Lazio because it's a big club. "Nevertheless, I'm a little unhappy because I loved the squad we had at Bordeaux. "There was a winning atmosphere there. "I don't know much about Lazio but I've been (to Rome) on holiday and I liked it a lot." Ciani joined Bordeaux on a four-year contract in 2009, making 91 appearances for Les Girondins, and played in Sunday night's goalless draw at Paris St Germain before jetting off to Rome.
