Atalanta have confirmed the loan signing of Parma defender Yohan Benalouane.

The 26-year-old French-Tunisian centre-back has joined the Bergamo side after making just four appearances in Serie A for the Ducali so far this season.

Atalanta general manager Pierpaolo Marino and sporting director Gabriele Zamagna officially presented Benalouane to the media yesterday at a press conference and revealed that the defender has chosen to wear the number 29 jersey.

The former Saint-Etienne and Cesena defender has already begun training with his new side and was involved in the Orobici’s final training session of 2013.

Meanwhile, Parma have also confirmed that Chilean attacking midfielder Jaime Valdes has left the club.

The 32-year-old has joined Colo Colo in his homeland.
