Roma full-back Cicinho is close to joining Villarreal, while Empoli have officially signed Italian-Argentine talent Fernando Forestieri.

The Giallorossi had warned they wanted to cut down the squad during the transfer window and have already released Julio Cesar to Malaga and loaned Stefano Okaka to Bari.

It's widely reported that Spanish side Villarreal have a deal in place to take Cicinho on loan from tomorrow.

The knock-on effect is that Aleandro Rosi will now probably stay at Roma rather than go to Bologna for six months.
