Torino is on the verge of completing the transfer of Cesare Casadei from Chelsea, outmanoeuvring Lazio in the race for the talented Italian midfielder. Gianluca Di Marzio reports that the deal is expected to be finalised today, marking a significant coup for the Granata.
The two clubs have reportedly reached an agreement on the transfer fee, which is understood to be in the range of 10 to 12 million euros, plus performance-related bonuses. A key component of the deal is a substantial sell-on clause, giving Chelsea a significant percentage of any future transfer fee should Casadei move on from Torino.
This transfer represents a homecoming of sorts for Casadei, who will be returning to Serie A after his stint with Chelsea. The former Inter Milan youth product has struggled to break into the first team at Stamford Bridge, making this move a crucial step in his career development.
Torino’s successful pursuit of Casadei demonstrates their ambition and ability to compete for promising young talents. The midfielder’s arrival is expected to bolster their squad and provide additional quality in the center of the park.
