Forza Viola!
Marcos has signed for top Italian side Fiorentina, joining on a free when the Bolton contract ran out in July.
The Serie A side have been chasing the full-back for a while and they finally got their man, Alonso signing a three-year deal.
‘Fiorentina are a great club and one of the big teams in Italy.’ Said Marcos A. ‘It’s a new challenge for me in a different country, but I am not coming to be cover for anyone. I need to be starting week in week out and I have come to Florence to do just that.’
The Viola will compete in the Europa League next season after a good season in Serie A.
‘I join the club at an exciting time with European football and some top signings this summer. I am excited about the new season. I know the club have a long history and a passionate fanbase and I have had a great welcome.’
