Sampdoria have completed the signing of Andrea Ranocchia on loan from Serie A rivals Inter Milan until the end of the season.
Ranocchia, 27, had also been linked with Liverpool and the central defender will look to boost his chances of being part of Italy's Euro 2016 squad by securing more starts for the Blucerchiati, having featured just 10 times for Inter in the first half of the season.
