In 2021 he went on loan to Fulham and then, again on a temporary basis, to Stoke City. In June 2022 he returned to the base and since then has totaled be 7 goals and 3 assists in 15 league games. Also enticing Torino is Maja’s contract, which expires in 2023.

The Nigerian striker is the first alternative to M’Bala Nzola: for the Angolan, Toro has been in talks with Spezia for weeks.
