UC Sampdoria have signed Belarussian international Vitali Kutuzov from Serie A rivals AC Milan.
Relegation struggle
The 24-year-old, who has 17 international caps, made just two substitute appearances for Milan after joining in 2001. He played on loan at Serie B team Avellino Calcio last season, but despite scoring 15 goals could not save the club from relegation.
Great record
Kutuzov made his debut as a 15-year-old for the Belarussian club FC MPKC 96. He switched to FC RUOR and later joined FC BATE Borisov before his move to Italy.
