Giovanni Simeone has taken note of Pisa’s push for him but so far he hasn’t given a definitive yes. There are also a couple of offers from abroad but watch out for surprises. That’s right, in the last few hours, Torino have also made enquiries to Napoli, carrying out a thorough check.

Evidently, the Granata are looking for a striker who is already match-fit, while they wait for the full recovery of the irreplaceable Duvan Zapata. The questions asked about El Cholito are already a promising starting point and we will see how things unfold from here.

Simeone suffers injury in Napoli training

In the meantime, Simeone left training due to a back issue – we are waiting on the medical report. His future should become clearer in the coming days but Torino’s move is definitely one to watch.

On the way out from Torino, there is still Sanabria: Cremonese are pushing hard and there is also a couple of offers from abroad but Davide Nicola is applying real pressure.

One thought on “Exclusive: Torino enquire for Napoli’s Giovanni Simeone”
  1. I feel that’s the type of club he should be at, and starting games. Don’t think he’s at the level of a Napoli, but it’s such a waste to be playing as few minutes as he has (the equivalent of 18 games in 3 seasons). What should have been the best years of his career basically wasted.
