Torino is among the clubs interested in signing 27-year-old Japanese defender Takehiro Tomiyasu, who is a free agent after his departure from Ajax. The former Bologna and Arsenal player is receptive to a move to Italy, and it is also reported that Sassuolo is monitoring his situation. Torino has already signed Swiss player Eray Comert but could still sign a player from the free agent market. Venezia also has an agreement with Tomiyasu for a three-year contract valued at €1.1 million per season, but the finalization of their deal is contingent on freeing up a non-EU player slot. Tomiyasu has 46 caps and one goal for Japan, and his current market value is €5.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
