Southampton and Bologna are chasing the services of now fully-owned Torino midfielder Marco Benassi.

The 21-year-old Italian youth international joined the Granata on a full-time basis this week, after they bought out his other 50% of his playing rights from Inter.

The midfielder has enjoyed a good season for Torino, amassing 32 appearances this season, and netted two goals for the Italy under 21’s against their English counterparts on Tuesday evening.

According to Sky Sport Italia, this sort of form has garnered the attention of English Premier League outfit Southampton and newly promoted Serie A side Bologna.

Torino however, have no intention of letting Benassi leave, as they consider him to be a huge part of their future and will resist any forthcoming bids.
