A market target for Torino has disappeared: the granata must give up on Niccolò Fortini, the young left-back from Fiorentina who had been followed by Torino in recent weeks. The granata are looking for a player capable of replacing Cristiano Biraghi, and among the hottest names was precisely that of the 2006-born, who seemed out of Stefano Pioli&#8217s plans.

And instead the Gigliati coach himself in a press conference closed the door on a possible departure of the player: “Fortini arrived that he still had to get over an injury and could not take advantage of the first two weeks of work. Now, however, he is well. I believe he can stay with us”.

“He can grow a lot: he has good technical qualities, leg, speed. In addition, he can play either on the right or on the left”. Toro will now focus on Anass Salah-Eddine, a class of 2002 owned by Roma who has had little space in the capital: he could arrive on loan with right of redemption. The Giallorossi are ready to sell him but the Granata must also guard against competition from several German clubs.
