Torino, very close to signing defender

There are just the very last details to be ironed out and then Andrea Cistana will become a new Torino player. The Brescia center-back, who has long been in Torino’s sights (and also probed by Fiorentina), is ready to embark on this new adventure in a granata jersey.

Waiting for him will be Ivan Juric, who mentioned Cistana’s name several months ago and will finally be able to coach him.

Torino currently occupies the fifth position in the league thanks to the seven points won in the first three days. In the last round Sanabria and his teammates triumphed over Cremonese: “We did not take advantage of the chances we had and in the end we conceded goals forcing us to suffer the last ten minutes. I liked Cremonese’s outsides, but I liked our forwards who accelerated and created the difference in the result. Now I enjoy the standings because it is better to be up than down. I would say a start that is pleasing,” Juric commented.
