Leicester City allowed Dennis Praet spend the last season on loan at Torino. As a part of the deal, the Serie A side had an option to make his stay permanent.
The midfielder impressed during his loan spell at the Turin club and that was enough to convince them to keep him, but not at the pre-agreed fee.
Instead, Torino would prefer to bring him back with another loan.
That doesn’t mean the operation will not take shape. Accoridng to Torino Granata, ‘no one gives up’ the idea to sign the Leicester player
The Belgium international is now training under Brendan Rodgers’ orders and it is known the Italian side’s manager, Ivan Jurić, would like to have the 28-year-old back again at the club.
Leicester want to sell the ex-Sampdoria man and are demanding no less than €12m. This figure has also gone up to €15m.
Meanwhile, Torino have offered to take him on loan with right of redemption set at €8m if Praet makes certain number of appearances.
There is still a gap between the two clubs.
Despite the current situation, ‘no one gives up’ on the possible arrival of the midfielder as there could be a happy ending to this case.
Praet’s agent Martin Riha is ‘working’ to get the deal over the line, but the report states it will ‘take some time’.
