Davide Vagnati exposes himself on the future of Alessandro Buongiorno

During a press conference on Wednesday in which Torino presented David Okereke, one of the reinforcements arrived in the last days of the winter market, Torino’s sporting director Davide Vagnati also spoke about the future prospects of the market, dwelling on the situation of Alessandro Buongiorno, a player for whom several clubs have already sounded the ground.

"A few phone calls è arrived – admitted the granata executive -. Forò there was no obligation on our part to accept an offer -. And then we are talking about a footballer who is very attached to Torino, we preferred not to even consider the possibility of selling him. Even President Cairo è expressed himself on him in this sense, his words were clear".

"Alessandro è happy to be here, è almost an integral part of the clubà itself, he cares about it and è a special player – added Vagnati -. It is true that in soccer you can never say never but we are talking about an element that the more ù time he stays with us the better è. It's clear that a lot will depend on us, if we manage to make a few 'trips' abroad, qualifying for the cups, maybe we will also have more desire to continue together".

The only thought, now, è to see him back on the field soon once he gets over the shoulder problem: For Vagnati, Buongiorno's rehabilitation is going on "very well, I would say all that is missing is to put a cot so he can also sleep at the Philadelphia. He is doing everything he can to improve the stabilityà of the shoulder, he is working to get back as soon as possible".
