Torino, Berenguer set to join Athletic Bilbao: the latest

Alejandro Berenguer is set to leave Torino and return to La Liga. The Granata are in fact very close to reaching an agreement for the sale of the Spaniard to Athletic Bilbao. The deal is nearing a positive conclusion as the two clubs are completing the final details - specifically regarding taxation - of the deal.

The Granata will get €12 million from Atheltic for Berenguer, a sum that will potentially be reinvested in the signing of Gaston Ramirez from Sampdoria. The parties are waiting for the player's agent to arrive in Italy in order to complete the transfer.

The funds coming from the sale of Berenguer will also be useful in Torino's pursuit of a striker, with Parma's Roberto Inglese being the main target. It remains to be seen whether Parma would be willing to sell their centre-forward, should a concrete offer be submitted.
