Former Bayern striker, Luca Toni, now at Genoa, said in a press conference: "I like Genoa's president, Preziosi, he's crazy and I want to repay his trust with my goals. When we spoke on the phone he was enthusiastic. I have to thank him and the coach if I am here. Now it's my turn, I want to score as many goals as possible, I want to be Serie A top scorer and help my team to achieve the targets".

Toni has signed a 2-year contract for 4 million euro net per season plus a 1-million bonus if he scores at least 15 goals..
