UPDATE- Friday June 15, 2012: It's official, Gennaro Gattuso has signed a two year contract with FC Sion. Scroll down to see a presentation picture.
The Italian midfielder looked initially set to further his career in Turkey, but it has been suggested he has agreed to join the Stade Tourbillon outfit after a change of heart
Former AC Milan midfielder Gennaro Gattuso is on the brink of completing a free transfer to Swiss side Sion, Sport Mediaset reports.
Italian sources had claimed earlier on Thursday that the 34-year-old was close to joining Galatasaray on a one-year deal worth €1.5 million.
However, fresh reports suggest that Gattuso has made a U-turn on his decision and agreed to join Sion until 2014.
It is believed that the Swiss side, who finished ninth in the domestic league this season, will hold a press conference on Friday at 13:30GMT to announce the signing.
Gattuso does not know yet who will coach him at the Stade Tourbillon as Sion are on the lookout for a new manager after Vladimir Petkovic agreed to join Lazio earlier in the month.
