Midfielder joins Atalanta on loan

Napoli have allowed Sam Dalla Bona to link up with Atalanta on loan for the season. The midfielder, who spent the early part of his career with Chelsea, does not figure in the immediate plans of Napoli manager Walter Mazzarri. The 29-year-old has therefore been sent out to Atalanta on a year-long deal, where it is hoped he will play more regularly. Atalanta were relegated from Serie A at the end of last season and will be seeking to bounce back at the first attempt.
