Torino’s recent defeat against Cremonese has highlighted the urgent need for reinforcements in the transfer market. The club is actively seeking quality additions to provide new manager Paolo Vanoli with a more complete squad and eliminate potential excuses for underperformance.
Tuttosport (via TMW) report that while outgoing transfers may be necessary to facilitate new arrivals, negotiations for Robin Gosens are slowly progressing. Torino’s sporting director Vagnati has made an initial offer of €5 million plus €1 million in bonuses for a permanent transfer of the German wing-back. However, Union Berlin considers this sum inadequate.
According to the report, Union Berlin is demanding at least €10 million for Gosens and is currently unwilling to entertain the possibility of a loan with an option to buy. Despite this, Gosens himself is said to be interested in joining Torino and returning to Italy. The player is reportedly willing to make sacrifices in terms of salary to facilitate the move.
Gosens’ desire to join Torino could prove crucial in reaching an agreement between the clubs. His willingness to push for the transfer may help bridge the gap between Torino’s offer and Union Berlin’s valuation.
As negotiations continue, Torino fans are hopeful that the club can secure Gosens’ services, viewing him as a potentially significant upgrade to their squad. The coming days will be crucial in determining whether Torino can meet Union Berlin’s demands and bring the experienced wing-back to Serie A.
