Chievo shocked the football world on Monday, with the announcement that they had signed Cruzeiro star Kerlon.
Kerlon said: “I am happy to have arrived in Italy, and to have the opportunity to play in Serie A. For this I am grateful to Chievo.
“I look forward to putting myself to the test even if I have to have a little bit of patience – I am still recovering from my knee injury and I need at least two to three weeks to fully recover.
“My favourite Brazilian? Ronaldinho, for his fantasy. But I like a lot Luciano and Cesar of Chievo.
“My objectives? To have a beautiful championship with Chievo and to avoid relegation.”
