The announcement was made by the club itself, through a statement, which VerAngola had access to. "ACF Fiorentina is pleased to announce the signing of M'bala Nzola from Spezia Calcio on a permanent transfer", reads the note.
M'bala Nzola was born in Buco-Zau, on the 18th of August 1996, and his professional curriculum includes spells at Carpi, Trapani and Spezia.
At Spezia, the note adds, the Angolan "scored 26 goals in 77 Serie A games".
"The 26-year-old striker also has six international caps and two appearances for Angola", says the statement from the Italian emblem.
According to Angop, Nzola's official appointment at the Florence club took place this Wednesday, with the Angolan player expected to replace Arthur Cabral, who will head to Benfica.
