The 32-year-old moves to Panionios on a two-year contract having become a free agent in the close season when his Inter deal expired. Recoba leaves Italy's top flight after eleven seasons, having arrived at Inter from Danubio FC in the 1997/98 campaign. He established himself at the San Siro after a loan spell with AC Venezia, going on to score 53 goals in 175 Serie A appearances for the Nerazzurri. He was also part of Inter's Scudetto-winning team of 2006/07, having lifted the UEFA Cup in 1998 and the Coppa Italia in both 2005 and 2006. Recoba spent last term at Torino FC, featuring 22 times in the league.
