Genoa have snapped up Juventus left-back Luca Pellegrini.

Pellegrini joins Genoa on a season-long loan.

The 21-year-old was expected to kick on under Andrea Pirlo this season, having spent last season on loan at Cagliari.

However, Under-23 prospect Gianluca Frabotta started ahead of him during the Bianconeri's 3-0 win against Sampdoria in their Serie A opener.

As such, Pellegrini has moved to Genoa on a straight loan.
