Armando Izzo left Genoa and made a switch to Torino in the summer 2018 window, and the centre-back started 37 league games last season, scoring four goals and registering one assist in the process.

The 27-year-old’s performances for the Serie A side have seen him draw attention from Arsenal, if new claims are to be believed.

According to Tutto Mercato Web, the Italy international’s agent Paolo Palermo is in London, and there could be a possibility of holding a meeting with the Gunners today.

It’s claimed Unai Emery’s side have monitored the Naples-born player and during a meeting with his representative, the Europa League runners-up could evaluate the ‘possibility of starting a negotiation’.

The defender is a key player for Walter Mazzarri’s side and irrespective of what happens during a meeting between the Premier League side and Izzo’s agent, Torino will have the last word on the player’s future.

Izzo still has four years left on his contract and only a good offer would convince Torino to consider their central defender’s sale.
