Torino are interested in signing Kieran Gibbs from West Bromwich Albion in the summer transfer window, according to Gianlucadimarzio.com.

The Italian club have already reportedly made initial contact regarding the transfer of the former Arsenal defender.

The Serie A outfit are waiting before going in depth for Gibbs, according to the report, which also claims that Torino could make a move for a loan deal with a clause to sign him on a permanent contract.

 

Disappointing season

Gibbs joined West Brom from Arsenal in the summer of 2017 for a transfer fee reported by Sky Sports to be worth £7 million.

The 28-year-old arrived at The Hawthorns with a strong reputation, but the left-back could not make a huge impact at the Baggies.

According to WhoScored, the England international made 32 starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League last season, providing one assist in the process.

West Brom will play in the Championship next season after getting relegated from the Premier League at the end of the 2017-18 campaign.
