Torino has decided to use its unilateral right to extend the contract of 21-year-old Turkish midfielder Emirhan Ilkhan. This action is to avoid losing Ilkhan for free at the end of the season when his current contract expires. Torino's plan is to secure safety in the league and then begin negotiations with Emirhan Ilkhan's representatives for a longer contract with a higher salary. In the current Serie A season, he has made 14 appearances, scoring one goal and providing one assist. İlkhan has been capped 10 times for the Türkiye U21 team, scoring two goals. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €5.00m. He has previously been linked with clubs such as Trabzonspor and Monza.
