Cagliari have signed Jherson Vergara outright from Milan, before immediately loaning him out to Olbia.

The Colombian joined the Rossoneri in 2013 for €2m, but never actually made a competitive appearance for them.

Today it was confirmed that he has moved to Cagliari on a permanent transfer, before an immediate loan move to Serie C.

“Cagliari Calcio announces the move of the player Jherson Vergara to Olbia on loan,” a statement on the Sardinian side’s website reads.

“The Colombian defender arrived from Milan and has played with Avellino and Livorno in recent seasons, totalling 36 appearances in two seasons.”
