Torino are facing significant financial obstacles in their efforts to sign Inter Milan midfielder Kristjan Asllani.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews. They report that the Granata could offer a sell-on fee to lower the price tag, and ask the Albanian to lower his wages.

Kristjan Asllani remains an Inter player despite strong transfer links away this summer.

The Nerazzurri do not see the 23-year-old as fitting into their plans. However, they have struggled to find a buyer for him.

Reportedly, a key factor in Inter’s inability to sell Asllani has been the fact that the player himself would only want a move to a different team within Serie A.

Torino have emerged with an interest in signing Asllani. However, as Tuttosport note, it would not be an easy deal for the Granata financially.

Firstly, there would be the matter of Inter’s asking price for Asllani.

Reportedly, Inter value the 23-year-old at around €18 million. That is well above what Torino are able to invest.

Therefore, Tuttosport report, Torino could offer to sign Asllani on loan initially.

Alternatively, the newspaper anticipate, the Granata could also include a sell-on fee of 30-40% in their offer in order to convince Inter to lower the price tag.

Meanwhile, Asllani’s wages of €2 million net per season at Inter would be too high for Torino. Therefore, they have asked that he accept a pay cut to join.
