Mario Gomez to Fiorentina

It was just reported today that Bayern Munich striker, Mario Gomez, was transferred to Fiorentina. The transfer was worth 18 million euros + bonuses and 5 million in wages + bonuses for his contract as reported by @SerieATransfers on Twitter. In my opinion, this isn't just a great signing for Fiorentina, but a fantastic one for Serie A as a whole. It'll really bring a lot more of the deserved attention to Italy and hopefully it'll get more respect as it should. Many people find Gomez to be extremely overrated, but this is only because he's not in the media very often. He is truly a great player for both club and country. This past season he scored 19 goals in 32 games, even when he didn't get much playing time because he was the back up to Mandzukic who I find to be the overrated one. In the 2011-12 season, Gomez scored an astonishing 41 goals in the Bundesliga in just 52 matches and the season before that he scored 39 in just 45 games. He really is the real deal. As a Milan fan I should be disappointed as it's only a disadvantage for them, but I love when big name players come into the league and I still think Milan is the better team anyway. On a side note, I really hope Cavani stays at Napoli, but I have a feeling that won't happen. Anyway, I think Gomez will do great at Fiorentina and I think the next few years we'll be seeing him and the other Mario over in Milan competing for the capocannoniere(top scorer).
