Winger pens three-year contract with Mazzarri's men

Argentine winger Mario Alberto Santana has joined Napoli on a free transfer. The 29-year-old was up for grabs after reaching the end of his contract at Fiorentina. He slipped into the free agent pool in June, but has wasted little time in finding a new club. Santana has penned a three-year contract with Walter Mazzarri's ambitious side. He becomes Napoli's third signing in the space of a week, with the club working hard to piece together a squad they hope will compete for the Serie A title this season. Swiss midfielder Gokhan Inler and Uruguayan full-back Miguel Angel Britos have already completed moves to Naples.
