Veteran striker Adrian Mutu will play for Serie A outfit Cesena next season, after his move from Fiorentina was confirmed on Friday.
Mutu, 32, was close to leaving Fiorentina in January for the newly promoted club, but the move was blocked before its eventual completion in the off-season.
He has signed a two-year-deal at Cesena, with the option of a third available.

Mutu had to accept a pay cut to join Cesena but will bring a wealth of experience to the club.
He netted 54 goals in 112 matches for Fiorentina and has also played for the likes of Inter Milan and Juventus in the Serie A as well as Chelsea.
He was out of favour with the Florence-based club after walking out of training when the move to Cesena did not eventuate in January.
Mutu has never been far from controversy during his career, having twice been suspended for failing a drugs test - once at Chelsea and once at Fiorentina - for which he was banned from fooball for one year and six months respectivley.
