Genoa have announced the signing of Groningen defender Andreas Granqvist, who will move to the Italian side for an undisclosed fee.
The Swedish international right back signed for the Dutch side in July 2008, and has played almost 100 games in the Eredivisie. He has been linked with a number of European clubs lately, but Alberto Malesani's side have won the race for the 26-year-old's signature.
