Darmian completes Italian deal, Icardi heads to France
Matteo Darmian has finally secured his Manchester United exit, with the Italian completing a permanent return to Italy with Parma.
The defender leaves United after four years at Old Trafford, in which he made 92 appearances.
But he has rarely been a guaranteed first-choice at any point during his time at the club, and had fallen further down the pecking order under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Darmian has departed for an undisclosed fee, believed to be in the region of £3.5million.
Also Mauro Icardi will join Paris Saint-Germain on loan in a last-ditch move away from Inter Milan.
The striker is set to make the deadline day switch to the French capital and will arrive in Paris on Monday afternoon to complete a medical.
Inter will not have the option to buy the 26-year-old but have beaten off competition from several clubs in Spain and Italy to secure his services, report RMC.
Icardi was told earlier this summer by Antonio Conte he was surplus to requirements at the San Siro after they Nerazzurri splashed £74million on Romelu Lukaku.
A proposed switch to Juventus failed to materialise and he will now link up with Neymar and Kylian Mbappe in an all-star PSG forward line.
