Getafe add Ustari

Getafe have completed the signing of Oscar Ustari from Independiente.

Getafe have completed the signing of Argentina international goalkeeper Oscar Ustari from Independiente.

Ustari will join the Spanish club for a fee reported to be in the region of ,é¼6million (£4million).

The 21-year-old shot-stopper has agreed a six-year deal and joins fellow Argentina keeper Roberto Abbondanzieri at Getafe.

Ustari's arrival is likely to signal the end of Luis Garcia's time at the Alfonso Perez.

Abbondanzieri is currently the club's number one and Ustari will look to challenge the 34-year-old for his starting role.

Boca Juniors defender Daniel Diaz is also set to sign for Getafe for ,é¼4million (£2.7million), according to his agent Gerardo Nolan.

"We have reached a formal agreement with Getafe, there are only a few things to be resolved," Nolan told South American media.

Diaz had been a target for Sevilla and Betis but will link up with Getafe after the Copa America.

Meanwhile, Auxerre have warned interested clubs that they will not sell Thomas Kahlenberg on the cheap.

Kahlenberg has been linked with a move to Getafe but the French club are keen to hold onto the Denmark international.

"Yes, we could reject an offer of ,é¼10million (£6.7million)," club spokesman Baptiste Malherbe told BT.
