La Stampa: Hypothesis of swap deal between Milan and Torino remains alive

AC Milan remain in talks with Torino over a potential swap deal which would see Junior Messias head to join the Granata, a report claims.

Francesco Manassero who is the editor of La Stampa was interviewed by TMW about Torino’s possible movements between now and the end of the summer transfer window.

He firstly remarked that there is the need to try and raise some funds before any more signings are made given over €20m has been invested to sign Vlasic, Bellanova and Tameze, so a sale cannot be ruled out.

Given the frictions with Lazio over Samuel Ricci, the possibility of Perr Schuurs departing increased. There are Premier League after him, such as Crystal Palace and Tottenham who have been following him for months.

Wilfried Singo’s name could become topical again too, as Torino would take less money than they were asking for at the start of the window and he could be part of a swap deal with Milan for Messias or with Atalanta for Soppy.
