Genoa have officially announced the acquisition of Alessandro Zanoli from Napoli. The 23-year-old right-back arrives on a loan deal with an option to buy, which becomes an obligation under certain conditions.
Zanoli has already made a name for himself in Serie A, boasting an impressive 59 appearances in the top flight of Italian football. The versatile defender, who stands at 1.88 meters tall, can also operate as a central defender or right midfielder when needed.
Zanoli’s potential has not gone unnoticed at the international level, as he has already represented Italy’s Under-21 national team on two occasions. His experience and versatility are expected to bolster Genoa’s defensive options for the upcoming season.
The young Italian’s journey to Genoa has been closely followed, with reports of his arrival in the city for medical examinations surfacing just days before the official announcement. This transfer marks a significant step in Zanoli’s career as he seeks to gain more regular playing time and continue his development.
