Torino have identified Southampton and ex-Bologna star Gaston Ramirez as one of the top transfer targets.
The 23 year old Uruguayan has struggled to nail down a regular starting spot at St Marys, after moving in a big money move from Bologna two seasons ago.
Tuttosport report that the Granata are interested in taking the stylish play-maker back to the Serie A in the summer.
Negotiations haven’t begun, but Torino are convinced that his price has dropped dramatically since last summer.
In the case of a contingency plan, Torino will make a play for highly rated River Plate midfielder Manuel Lanzini, who they are convinced they can purchase for a fee of €6.5 million.
Ramirez has made just three starts and 15 substitute appearances for the Saints this term, netting once.
