Genoa seal Ocampos capture

Genoa have signed Marseille forward Lucas Ocampos on loan, with the option to make the move permanent.

The 21-year-old, formerly of Monaco, had a loan spell with Marseille in 2015 before joining the club full-time in June of that year for a fee of around €7million.

The Argentinian now has the chance of a fresh start in Serie A, joining a Genoa side who ended 2015-16 in 11th spot.

The Italian club's statement read: "The transaction involves a temporary transfer with an option for Genoa CFC to buy him definitively."
