Market

David Neres puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Torino, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Udinese watching David Neres

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Torino have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Squad

Che Adams in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Torino this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Whatever happens, Torino do not lose

7 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad

Alessio Cacciamani is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad

Words at Torino training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Rolando Mandragora is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

Business is business: Alberto Paleari goes

Frosinone paid $250.0K and Torino took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

The dugout

Patrick Cutrone gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Lorenzo Di Stefano has improved at 25, which nobody expected

Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 4 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

The Torino Post

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match

Cup progress for Torino

A 5‑2 win over Monopoli, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Player ratings

Both of them Gianluca Gaetano's — 8.01

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.01, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Player ratings

Alessio Cacciamani, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 8.31

A mark of 8.31 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Market

Franco Cáceres asks to leave Torino

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

David Neres has his eye on Europe

It is not a grievance and it is not a demand: he wants to play continental football, and he has stopped hiding it. Whether Torino can give him that is a question about the club, not about him.

Squad

A falling-out at Torino

Che Adams and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings

Pietro Pellegri scored one and made one — 7.41

Two of the goals had his name somewhere on them, which is the afternoon a manager wants from anybody asked to both create and finish. 7.41, and 2 involvements.

Match

7 goals as Torino and Monopoli go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 7 goals between Torino and Monopoli, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Squad

Rolando Mandragora falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

In brief
