Udinese have loaned out Ghana defender Masahudu Alhassan to Serie B side Latina FC.

The 20-year-old spent last season on loan at Novara, at a time he was owned by Genoa.

But his dream to play in the top flight after he was signed by Udinese would be delayed after his new employers agreed on a season-long loan deal with Latina.

“I am happy with the decision because my interest is to play regularly and I know I will soon make a return to Udinese to play in the Seria A," Alhassan told Goal Ghana.

Latina who just got promotion to the Serie B will open their campaign on August 23 against Empoli.
