Soccer-Zenit sign Gremio midfielder Giuliano

MOSCOW, July 26 (Reuters) - Zenit St. Petersburg have signed Brazilian attacking midfielder Giuliano from Gremio, the Russian club said on Tuesday. The 26-year-old, who has played eight times for the Brazilian national team, agreed a four-year contract. Financial details were not disclosed. Giuliano, who played in the Ukrainian league for Dnipro between 2011-14 before returning home to join Gremio, is coach Mircea Lucescu's second signing after Slovakian winger Robert Mak. The Romanian took over from Andre Villas-Boas at the end of May. Zenit finished third in the Russian championship last season. (Reporting By Dmitriy Rogovitskiy, editing by Pritha Sarkar)
