Acquah, meanwhile, played 79 times for Toro in three seasons but without ever holding down a first-team place.
Nonetheless, the 26-year-old has 29 caps for Ghana and should give the Serie A new boys some much-needed experience.
The Granata have had a busy deadline day, bringing in defender Koffi Djidji, and could yet sign Villarreal striker Simone Zaza.
