[Mercato] Deadline Day round-up

Here is a round-up of the main transfer deals done by Serie A clubs on deadline day of the January transfer window...

Napoli have completed the signing of 22-year-old goalkeeper Nicolas Navarro from Argentinos Juniors and midfielder Michele Pazienza, 25, on a four-year deal from Fiorentina. No transfer fee details have been release for either player.

Inter have revealed that Goran Slavkovski has joined English second-tier side Sheffield United on loan. The 18-year-old has been training with Middlesbrough over the past few days, but now the Nerazzurri have revealed that he will not be heading to the Premier League outfit.


The Serie A champions have also confirmed that Filippo Mancini, the son of coach Roberto, would continue to train with Manchester City for the rest of the season after joining Sven-Goran Eriksson's side earlier this month.

Ayodele Makinwa has left Lazio to become Reggina's latest winter signing, joining on loan for the rest of the season. The 24-year-old Nigerian striker, who counts Palermo, Atalanta, Genoa and Modena among his former teams, has played in 14 Serie A matches this term. He also featured in four Champions League games as Lazio finished bottom of their group.

Siena have increased their midfield options for the second half of the season, signing 25-year-old Manuel Coppola on loan from Genoa until the summer with the option for a permanent move.

Also joining the Tuscan side is Moroccan international Houssine Kharja, also 25, who arrives on a similar deal from Serie B outfit Piacenza. Siena are third from bottom of Serie A.

Uruguayan defender Martin Leonardo Miglionico, 28, has joined Sampdoria from Piacenza in an undisclosed deal.

Miglionico has made 82 Serie B appearances for Piacenza since his move from Estudiantes in 2004. He will now get a chance in the Italian top flight, with the Blucerchiati seventh in the table and pursuing a UEFA Cup spot.

The Serie B club will retain half of his playing licence.
