Fiorentina Loan Felipe Dalbelo To Cesena

Fiorentina strike a deal for Paulo Barreto to arrive from Bari, but he will still be co-owned by Udinese as Felipe joins Cesena officially on loan.
Fiorentina have confirmed Felipe Dalbelo has been loaned to Cesena.

The 26-year-old Brazilian centre-back has penned a deal with the Seahorses after finding limited space at the Artemio Franchi.

A statement on Fiorentina's official website reads: "ACF Fiorentina communicates to have loaned Felipe to AC Cesena."


Fiorentina are also close to sealing an agreement for Bari striker Paulo Barreto on a co-ownership deal.

Sky Sport Italia reports the Viola have offered Bari €4.5 million to buy their half of the rights to the player. Udinese will keep the other 50 per cent of his registration.

Baretto is said to have left Bari on Monday afternoon to travel to Milan, where he will have a medical with Fiorentina staff.

The Viola are keen to assure his recent injury is behind him before making the transfer official.
