Maksimovic makes Napoli switch
Serbia and Torino defender Nikola Maksimovic's transfer saga came to an end with a season-long loan deal to Napoli, a move that will become permanent.
Maksimovic had angered Torino manager Sinisa Mihajlovic in August with his attempts to force through a move.
After a security alert at Frankfurt Airport reportedly delayed Maksimovic, Torino confirmed the loan move on Thursday (AEST).
The one-season deal is with an obligation to purchase ahead of the 2017-2018 campaign.
Going in the other direction is Mirko Valdifiori, the midfielder completing a permanent move to the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino.
Valdifiori, 30, struggled to breakthrough at Napoli after his move from Empoli ahead of last season.
The moves continued a busy off-season for Torino, which welcomed the likes of Joe Hart and Adem Ljajic into its squad.
