Torino supporters have expressed their anger towards club president Urbano Cairo and sporting director Davide Vagnati following controversial comments about new signing Ché Adams. Fans displayed a banner outside the Stadio Filadelfia reading: “Go to hell, you, Cairo, and this embarrassing club.”
Calciomercato report how the fans’ frustration stems from Vagnati’s recent statements about Adams before the Inter-Torino match. Speaking to DAZN, Vagnati praised Adams as an “extraordinary player” and suggested he has the quality to play for “big clubs in Italy and abroad.” He later told Sky that the move to Torino could help Adams “return to big European stages or back to the Premier League or important clubs in Italy.”
These comments, particularly the reference to “important clubs,” have infuriated Torino supporters who feel the leadership is diminishing their club’s status. The fanbase, already at odds with Cairo’s ownership for years, now sees Vagnati’s words as further evidence of the club’s lack of ambition and self-respect.
