Torino now open to selling £9m Leeds United target in January

Torino are open to selling Leeds United January transfer target Ola Aina this month, according to Toro News.

The Italian news outlet has reported that Aina could leave Torino in the January transfer window.

Tuttomercatoweb reported last week that Leeds are interested in signing the former Fulham and Chelsea player in the January transfer window.

We covered the report here on HITC Sport.

Ola Aina to join Leeds from Torino?

In our view, if Leeds want Aina and if Torino are willing to sell the 25-year-old, then a move could well happen in the January transfer window.

Torino paid Chelsea £8.9m (Sky Sports) to sign the Nigeria international, who can play as a right-back or as a wing-back.

So, in our opinion, Torino are likely to ask to ask for more or at least that much for Aina now.

Aina came through the Chelsea academy system and played a handful of games for the London club’s first team.

The Nigeria international did well during his loan spells at Hull City and Fulham and would be a good signing for Leeds.

Aina has made 13 starts and three substitute appearances in Serie A for Torino so far this season.
