Italian Serie A football club Empoli has confirmed the signature of All Whites left back Libby Cacace.
The 21-year-old will head south from his Belgium club Sint-Truiden initially on a loan deal, with the option to make the move permanent at the end of the current season.
Empoli is currently mid-table.
No New Zealander has taken to the field in Serie A's top flight before, although fellow All White Matt Garbett is on the books at Torino.
