Federico Baschirotto arrives at Avellino in a $11.2M statement of intent

The town asked, and Avellino paid $11.2M

Bruno Donadoni steps up from the Avellino academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Bruno Donadoni has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
