Serie A clubs cannot resist the temptation of pursuing Inter Milan star Francesco Pio Esposito, with Torino now joining the mix.
Per Tuttosport via FCInterNews, Marco Baroni’s men have entered the race to sign the 19-year-old.
After a stellar breakout season in Serie B with Spezia, Francesco Pio Esposito could leave the San Siro this summer.
Indeed, almost half of Serie A is keen on the teenage striker.
However, Cristian Chivu holds the young gun in high regard and could keep him at the club beyond the summer.
New Torino boss Baroni is in the market for attacking reinforcements.
A lack of firepower was Torino’s scourge in 2024/25. Only three teams to secure survival netted fewer goals than them.
Indeed, the Granata only scored 39 goals last term, highlighting the need for a prolific marksman.
Though Esposito lacks top-flight experience, Baroni sees the youngster as a gamble worth taking.
Yet, Inter will have the final say, with Chivu seemingly open to giving the Italian striker a chance to shine in Lombardy.
