Napoli have completed the loan signing of goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic from Torino.
The Serie A champions will have an obligation to buy the 28-year-old at the end of his loan spell for a reported €21.5m.
Milinkovic-Savic reportedly had a €20m release clause in his contract, but Napoli have opted for a loan in order to spread out the payment over several instalments.
The Serbia international has played 144 Serie A matches during his time with Torino, keeping 44 clean sheets in that time and conceding 154 goals.
Vanja is proud to be one of us!

He will compete with Alex Meret for a starting position at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Milinkovic-Savic joins the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Noa Lang and Sam Beukema as summer signings as Antonio Conte looks to win back-to-back league titles in Naples.
The news of his arrival followed a 2-1 win for Napoli over Serie B side Catanzaro, where Lorenzo Lucca netted the winner with his first goal for the club. Giacomo Raspadori had given Napoli the lead shortly before.
