Italian clubs Cittadella and Cagliari announce player transfers

Cittadella confirmed that defender Nicola Pavan, a 1993‑born player who made more than 200 appearances over seven seasons, will leave the club and join Serie D side Cjarlins Muzane. The club praised his experience and versatility in defense and midfield.

Cagliari’s sporting director Pietro Accardi is reportedly evaluating former Inter defender Matteo Darmian, 1989‑born, as a free‑transfer option. Darmian could provide experience and tactical flexibility, covering multiple defensive roles, without a transfer fee. The move would aim to balance youth development with seasoned leadership in the Sardinian squad.
