Italians hope to tempt Trotters into a sale

Torino are hoping to sign Blerim Dzemaili on a permanent basis from Premier League outfit Bolton. The Switzerland international moved to Italy on loan at the start of September and has impressed during his short time in Serie A. Having failed to make the grade in England, with injuries hindering his progress, the 22-year-old is likely to welcome the prospect of taking on a new challenge. Torino president Urbano Cairo is confident an agreement can be reached which will allow the midfielder to remain at Stadio Olimpico, providing they can generate the necessary funds. "We are hoping to find the finances which will allow us to sign him permanently," Cairo told La Stampa. It is believed that a fee of around 2million euros (£1.6m) would be enough to tempt the Trotters into a sale.
