After the defeat against Torino, Genoa, during the national team break, wastes no time to strike another market blow. Despite the fact that the soccer market session ended on Friday, Sept. 1 at 8 p.m., there è still is the possibility to put freed footballers under contract.

According to Sky Sport reports, the Grifone has closed for the arrival of Faroukou Cissé, a central defender born in 2004 who grew up in the youth ranks of Borussia Dortmund. The agreement between the parties has been reached, so much so that Cissé is already in Italy.

The defender svoglerà will shortly undergo medical examinations and then signà the contract that will bind himà to the Ligurian club. Cissé è an extremely ductile defender, who can play the role of central, but also fullback and if necessary can also play halfback in front of the defense. In short, a valuable alternative for coach Gilardino, who is looking forward to having him available.
