It seems Newcastle United have a golden opportunity to place a bid for Torino defender Alessandro Buongiorno.
Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport today features a piece talking about Napoli’s interest in the defender, as they’re making an effort to get him.
Antonio Conte’s new club are offering €35m, including bonuses. Even though Torino’s demand is €40m plus €5m in add-ons, they’re thinking about it.
Newcastle have been linked to Buongiorno since May 2023, and the rumours got a little more intense recently, with reports claiming the Magpies have started contacts for the signing.
Now Torino will be waiting for their move, as they know this is a great opportunity to cash in right at the start of the transfer window.
