Ciro Immobile admits he feels “bound to Torino,” and is confident the team can qualify for next year's Europa League.
The 25-year-old has been given limited playing time with Borussia Dortmund so far this season and has been accosted to several Serie A teams, but it seems his heart is still with the Granata.
“I'll watch the derby from home with my wife because we're still bound to Torino,” he told Tuttosport, in reference to this afternoon's clash between Il Toro and Juventus.

The 25-year-old has been given limited playing time with Borussia Dortmund so far this season and has been accosted to several Serie A teams, but it seems his heart is still with the Granata.
“I'll watch the derby from home with my wife because we're still bound to Torino,” he told Tuttosport, in reference to this afternoon's clash between Il Toro and Juventus.
“It's hard to predict an outcome in these situations because these games are special, but I think Torino should have greater drive because they need those points more than Juventus do.
“The Granata play like a great team and they can make it into next year's Europa League. I think their strength lies in how compact all of their components are with each other, because everyone feels important.
“[Coach Giampiero] Ventura is strong, let's not forget how well he works.”
Immobile is also cheering on Juve against Real Madrid, plus Napoli with Dnipro and Fiorentina at Sevilla.
“In the Champions League and in the Europa League I'll be supporting the Italian teams. It would be important for the movement of Italian football if they all progressed in Europe.
“Juve's strikers are incredibly strong and they've always been placed in the conditions to do well.”
