Roma have completed the signing of Stephan El Shaarawy.
The striker returns to the club after one and a half years.
The Italy international had left the Olimpico in the summer of 2019 to join Shanghai Shenhua.
He has now returned to the club as a free agent.
“AS Roma are delighted to announce the return of Stephan El Shaarawy to the club," the club's official announcement reads.
The Italy international rejoins the Giallorossi for a second spell, after his successful time in the capital from 2016-19.
“When I arrived in Rome the first time I realised how little time it takes for this club and this city to make a deep impression on you," El Shaarawy said.
“When I left I quickly realised that both would always be in my heart. Now I cannot wait to be once again representing this club and these colours."
