Ħamrun Spartans have signed A.C. Reggiana defender Christian Maldini on loan.

The season-long signing was announced by the Italian Lega Pro side in a statement posted to their website. 

In the statement, Reggiana said the loan would allow the player "to have consistent playing time and show his qualities."

"The club wishes to Christian best of luck and looks forward to welcoming back at the end of this football season," the statement read. 

Christian Maldini joined Reggiana on a free transfer from AC Milan's Under 19 squad earlier this summer, having risen through the Milan side's youth ranks. 

The 20-year-old is the son of legendary Azzurri and Milan full-back Paolo, and like his father, he prefers to play in the left-back position.
