Torino have completing the signings of Paolo Zanetti and Sasa Bjelanovic from relegated Ascoli.

The Granata have been one of the most active clubs in the transfer market and have now announced the arrival of two more men to strengthen their squad for next season.

Zanetti, a 24-year-old midfielder, started his career at Vicenza, making his Serie A debut in the 2000-01 season.

In 2003 he joined Empoli, becoming one of the Tuscan outfit’s key players before being sidelined for most of the 2005-06 campaign because of injury.

Zanetti then moved on to Ascoli last summer and will now wear the Granata outfit, fuelling speculation that Simone Barone is be close to leaving Turin.

Striker Bjelanovic, 28, spent the last two seasons at Ascoli, after having played for Dinamo Zagreb, Varteks Varazdin, Chievo, Como, Genoa and Lecce.

Torino have already secured the services of Eugenio Corini, Vincenzo Grella and Nicola Ventola, who joined the outfit on free transfers earlier this week.
