Napoli Secure Loan Deal of Vasco

Napoli have completed the loan signing of left-back Vasco
Regini from Serie A counterparts Sampdoria.

The 25-year-old will spend the rest of this season with
league leaders Napoli, who will have the option to make the
deal permanent in the summer.

Regini, a former Italy Under-21 international, has made 16
appearances in all competitions for Sampdoria this term
and played 90 minutes in their 4-2 home loss to Napoli last
month.

"Napoli makes official the signing of Vasco Regini from
Sampdoria," a statement on Napoli's official website
reads. "The defender arrives at the Azzuri on loan with an
option to buy."

Regini swaps a relegation battle for the title race as he
leaves Sampdoria fourth from bottom in Serie A.
