Fiorentina have signed midfielder Nicolo Fagioli from Juventus on a loan deal until the end of the season, while Ismael Bennacer has left AC Milan.

Fagioli, who came through the Juventus academy, has been unable to force his way into manager Thiago Motta's plans, playing just 10 minutes over the last five league games.

The 23-year-old spent seven months out of action last season following his ban after breaching rules on betting on matches, but returned in time to make Italy's Euro 2024 squad.

Fiorentina are sixth in Serie A, and host Inter on Thursday, but Fagioli will be unavailable as it is the continuation of an abandoned game following the collapse of midfielder Edoardo Bove.

Fagioli will be able to play in the following game, which is against the same opposition, on Monday next week.

Milan were also busy on deadline day, with midfielder Bennacer heading to Marseille on loan, with the French club having an option to buy.

Bennacer has featured just six times in Serie A this term, starting four times.

Kevin Zeroli also headed out of the door, joining Monza on loan.

Milan brought in Riccardo Sottil from Fiorentina, while a loan deal for Joao Felix was going to the wire on Monday.
