According reports Chelsea and Italian outfit, Torino are actively engaged in negotiations with young Italian Midfielder, Cesare Casadei – having already said yes to the the club.
Of all the many players in the extended first-team squad, Cesare Casadei looks to be among those most likely to depart Chelsea this month.
In fact, it’s looking increasingly likely that he will do so a permanent basis, and do so to Torino FC in Serie A
Casadei has already agreed personal terms with Serie A side Torino, and a fresh round of discussions have been scheduled ahead of ironing out the final fee.
The 21-year-old cost roughly €15m plus €5m in add-ons when bought from Inter Milan. However, the Italy Under-21 international faces the unenviable task of displacing Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez and Romeo Lavia in Chelsea’s midfield.
Moreover, all eyes are now on whether Chelsea and Torino can agree a transfer fee. Torino’s opening offer of €12m/£10m fell some way short of Chelsea’s €20m/£16.6m asking price.
However, Di Marzio claimed a fresh round of club-to-club talks have been pencilled in for Tuesday and Wednesday.
What’s more, the reporter strongly suggested there is scope for each team to make compromises and meet ‘halfway’ on the fee.
