So the vibe was good anyway. Nobody sought from Liga 1, I didn't talk to anyone, there were no discussions, “said the 32-year-old midfielder, who will be one of Genoa's best paid players, with a salary of 2 million euros per season.

“Welcome to Genoa, Nicolae!”, Post had Genoa on the club's Facebook page on Sunday. And Stanciu had replied with a “Dagghe Zena, Grifoni! From Romania with love! Forza Genoa!”.
