More details are emerging on the Torino agreement for Tino Anjorin, as Empoli must give 40 per cent of the €5m fee to his old club Chelsea.
As reported last night, the deal is done to snap up both Anjorin and his Empoli teammate Ardian Ismajli, who is a free agent after his contract was allowed to run down.
Sky Sport Italia now clarify that Torino are going to pay circa €5m to buy the attacking midfielder.
Anjorin getting a new Italian experience
Empoli are still making a healthy profit, but as part of the agreement that saw them snap up the player last year for free, they will owe his former club Chelsea a 40 per cent cut of the fee.
That means the Tuscans are set to pocket €3m and Chelsea will get €2m from the sale.
A product of the Chelsea youth academy, Anjorin also played for Lokomotiv Moscow, Huddersfield and Portsmouth before moving to Italy.
He scored two goals with three assists in 22 Serie A games this season, but could not prevent Empoli’s relegation.
The English player is seen as the heir to Milan-bound Samuele Ricci.
