Exclusive: Fazzini for Torino under Baroni if Milan secure Ricci

This is possible also because Milan have already identified his replacement in Ricci, who had been targeted in January with no success.

Fazzini can follow Ricci in Torino midfield

In turn, Torino are prepared for the exit of the Italy international, something that has been planned since Cesare Casadei arrived from Chelsea in the January window.

Now the Granata are looking to Fazzini , who is available as a bargain following the relegation of Empoli to Serie B.

Baroni had already wanted Fazzini when he was the coach of Lazio, so if he takes over at Torino, then that makes it even more likely they will get to work together at last.

Fazzini is 22 years old and scored six goals with one assist in 22 competitive appearances for Empoli this season.
