Torino are reportedly close to signing midfielder Rade Krunic from Empoli, with Afriyie Acquah moving in the opposite direction.
The 24-year-old Bosnian has been linked with a move to the Granata for some time and it appears a deal has been agreed between the two clubs.
According to Tuttosport, the only thing now standing in the way of a total agreement is Acquah’s negotiation of personal terms with Empoli.
The Ghanaian currently earns around €500,000-a-year with Toro, on a contract that is set to expire next summer.

According to the Italian daily, the Azzurri are offering a long-term deal on lower wages, with a compromise yet to be reached.
Although the figures behind the deal are unknown, it is expected Torino will pay a sum of cash – around €6m – in addition to Acquah, to secure Krunic’s signature.
Krunic, a full Bosnia-Herzegovina international, was a key player in Empoli's promotion from Serie B last season.
