Cristian Molinaro

The Italian defender underwent the standard medical examinations on Tuesday and has the option of extending his stay at the Mercedes-Benz-Arena at the end of the season.

"It's important for us to sign an experienced player in this position who can help us with immediate effect," said sporting director Horst Heldt. The new signing was introduced to the squad and head coach Christian Gross over lunch.

"The team is better than our position shows"

The 26-year-old was tired but happy on Tuesday morning as he disembarked the coach at the team's winter training camp in La Manga at around 13:00 CET having flown into Alicante an hour earlier.

"It was a long day and a long journey, but I'm happy to be here now," said the 5 ft 10 defender. "I'm looking forward to playing in the Bundesliga. VfB are not in a position that a club of their stature should be at the moment. The team is better than our position shows."

Amantino Mancin

Rafa Benitez is believed to be back in the hunt for the Brazilian winger Amantino Mancini.

Liverpool were keen on securing the player’s services last summer but had the door firmly shut in their faces by the Roma of Serie A.

The player is expected to turn down an offer of a new contract, and FIFA rules now allow a player to ‘buy themselves out’ of the last year of their contract.

“I am coming out of an unlucky spell and I need to feel important again,” Mancini told the Mirror. “I won’t speak about my contract until the end of the season.”

The remaining 12 months of his contract could cost about £4 million, while his valuation is around £10 million.

The player has moved from right back to an attacking right winger in his career to date. The 27 year old has played for Brazil on 12 occasions.
