Bids for Djidji, Torino looks to France for replacement

According to the latest market rumors it appears that Koffi Djidji has attracted the attentions of Fulham, Bristol and Anderlecht. Not to be caught unprepared, Torino has already mobilized its market men to identify a possible replacement.

Among the profiles sounded out is that of Oumar Gonzalez, a Cameroonian defender owned by Ajaccio and whose contract expires in 2023 with an option to renew. Raised in the youth sector of Metz, he has also worn the jerseys of Épinal, Rodez and Villefranche in his career. In 2019 he moved permanently to Chambly, a club he left in 2021 to move to Corsica. In 2019, with the Cameroonian Under-23 national team, he took part in the African Nations Cup in his category.

Coming off a 1-1 draw against Roma, Torino occupies ninth place in the standings. Their next engagement, set for Jan. 4, sees the granata host Hellas Verona.
