Serie A - Palermo sign Maccarone


Palermo have signed well-travelled forward Massimo Maccarone from Siena for an undisclosed fee.

Maccarone, 30, has signed a three-year deal with the option of a fourth as he joins the tenth club of his career.

The twice-capped Italy striker failed to build on the potential he showed as a youngster at AC Milan and Empoli, and struggled during a spell in England with Middlesbrough, but restored his reputation during three years at Siena as he scored 44 goals in 95 appearances.

However, his goals were not enough to save Siena from the drop at the end of last season, allowing Palermo to swoop in as they reinforce for their UEFA Europa League campaign next season.
