Italian side Sampdoria have secured the services of Mohammed Rabiu Alhassan on a season-long loan deal.

According to Corriere dello Sport, the Blucerchiati acquired the starlet from Ghana Telecom Premier League club, Liberty Professionals FC.

The 19-year-old has spent the most part of his career on loan, with his previous two stints in Spain's Segunda Division, namely Gimnastic and recently promoted Xerez.

Sampdoria have been fairly busy in the transfer market, particularly for midfielders as Mohammed Rabiu joins new signings Daniele Mannini and Fernando Tissone at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris.
