Torino continue negotiations with Hellas Verona for Josh Doig, but Gennaro Gattuso’s Olympique Marseille reportedly enter the fray too.
It is no secret that Doig is a target for the Granata and their coach Ivan Juric in the January transfer window.
According to Sportitalia transfer expert Alfredo Pedullà, the asking price is €6m and Toro have not yet reached it.
The big development today is that Ligue 1 giants Olympique Marseille have dived in with a proposal said to be worth €5m for the Scottish left-back.
The 21-year-old can also play in a more advanced role on the left of midfield, which is where he is required by Torino, or even as a centre-back if required.
Doig was voted Scottish Football Writers’ Young Player of the Year for 2020-21 at Hibernian and made the transfer to Hellas Verona for €3.6m in the summer of 2022.
So far this season, he has made 13 appearances for Verona between Serie A and the Coppa Italia.
#Doig piace sempre al #Torino, ma si inserisce l’#OM di #Gattuso: offerti 5 milioni, il #Verona chiede un milione in più, discorsi avviati
