AS Roma have signed Ukrainian striker Artem Dovbyk from last season's LaLiga surprise packages Girona, the Serie A club said on Friday.

The 27-year-old scored 24 goals and contributed eight assists in 36 matches last season for the Catalonian club who finished third after being title contenders for most of the campaign.

The details of the transfer were not disclosed, but Italian media reported the capital club will pay about 38 million euros ($41.48 million) for Dovbyk.
