Rennes have strengthened their squad ahead of a debut Champions League campaign by signing two players from Serie A, with Daniele Rugani and Dalbert joining on loan.
Rugani arrives from Juventus, where he made 101 appearances across all competitions and won the Italian title five times, as well as the Coppa Italia on three occasions.
The centre-back has struggled to become a first-team regular at Juve, though, making just 22 league starts across the previous two campaigns.
