Official: Rugani joins Fiorentina from Juventus for total €2.5m agreement
Daniele Rugani has officially joined Fiorentina on loan from Juventus, with an option to buy, which will reportedly become an obligation if they stay in Serie A.
The 31-year-old defender completed the transfer this afternoon, with just hours to spare before the deadline.
It is believed that the cost of the six-month loan is €500,000 and the option to buy is worth a further €2m.
This will become an obligation if certain conditions are met, which Sky Sport Italia maintain are Fiorentina managing to avoid relegation into Serie B.
New Serie A experience for Rugani
Rugani was a product of the Empoli and Juventus youth academies, also going out on loan to Stade Rennes, Cagliari and Ajax.
The centre-back had managed eight appearances for Juventus this season between Serie A and the Champions League.
He amassed 177 Serie A games in his career, winning five Scudetto titles, four editions of the Coppa Italia and two of the Supercoppa Italiana.
There were also seven senior Italy caps.
