Turin Transfer Market: The Granata Have Made an Offer for the Napoli Player Who Is No Longer Needed

Torino is taking concrete steps to sign Michael Folorunsho. According to reports from Sportmediaset, the Granata have expressed strong interest in the Napoli midfielder, and in recent days have reportedly reestablished contact with Napoli and the player’s agents to reach an agreement on a potential transfer to Turin.

For the former Bari, Verona, Fiorentina, and Cagliari player, the Neapolitans are said to have proposed to Napoli a loan deal with a fee of 500,000 euros, with an option to buy set at 6 million euros. During these preseason weeks, Allegri is evaluating the player, who is, in any case, expected to leave. In addition to Torino, Monza is also reportedly interested.

On the incoming front, Torino is also working to bring Alphadjo Cissé to the club, a young attacking midfielder born in 2006 who is owned by Milan. The Rossoneri had acquired him from Verona during the winter transfer window for approximately 8 million euros, then loaned him to Catanzaro, where the young player had seen playing time before being sidelined by an injury. Milan is open to negotiations, but only on a temporary basis and without an option to buy, in line with its policy for managing young talent.

Torino must also navigate a particularly busy transfer market for outgoing players. Among those certain to leave is Gvidas Gineitis, for whom Celtic and Salzburg have shown concrete interest, with Torino setting his transfer fee at around 15 million euros. The sale of Alieu Njie cannot be ruled out either: Crystal Palace has made a €20 million offer for the Swedish forward born in 2005, although the player’s recent change of agent could complicate the negotiations.
