Urbano Cairo makes Torino fans dream.
Torino president Urbano Cairo gave a long interview to the microphones of Sky Sport. “I will try to do the best soccer market possible – he began -I would like to get a left-back and an offensive outside back. We are trying to make a team that has a very important offensive potential. We have two first forwards like Simeone and Zapata, then we have a second forward like Che Adams, as well as Vlasic, Ngonge and Aboukhlal. There’s also Sanabria who has many requests, however. We really have a lot of potential in attack, but not only”.
“In midfield we have added Anjorin, while in defense we have added Ismajli– added the number one of the Grenadian club.”
I don’t know if it’s my best team, the field will tell us. We had a very good championship in the 2013/14 season, another equally good one in the 2018/19 year and in both we finished seventh. This one will be the best if we should finish sixth”.

Then he commented on the arrival of Giovanni Simeone: “I wanted to get Simeone already in the 2017 season, but then I couldn’t make it because Fiorentina got the better of him. For me he was an important striker, but I already had Belotti. Then I followed him to Fiorentina, Cagliari and also Verona, where he had a fantastic championship. I also saw him at Napoli and there, noticing that he had little space, I tried again to get him but we didn’t make it. We tried again, then finally this year we succeeded. Simeone is very happy, he is ‘from Toro’. He is a person with incredible grit and determination. For me it was an incredible joy to be able to get him. I think he has a great desire, hopefully it can be a special year for him”.
Closing on 20 years as president: “I am not one to live with regrets. I am happy with these 20 years. You could have done even better, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still do well. The goal is to maintain positivity and optimism. This year I’ve had some contention, but I think we are having one of the best buying campaigns of my presidency”.
