Dynamo Kiev complete Miguel Veloso switch

Dynamo Kiev have confirmed the capture of Genoa midfielder Miguel Veloso.

The 26-year-old, who helped Portugal reach the semi-finals of Euro 2012, has put pen to paper on a four-year deal with the Ukrainian side.

"I was aware of interest from many clubs, but Dynamo were the most persistent in the negotiations," Veloso told Kiev's official website.

"I also liked the fact that this is a club with great history and ambitions, and I was very interested by the opportunity to play in the Champions League."

Veloso moved to Genoa in 2010 after spending five years with Sporting Lisbon.
