Italian club Torino is intensifying its efforts to sign Luca Marianucci, with sporting director Gianluca Petrachi leading direct negotiations with Napoli to finalize the deal in the near future.

According to reports, communications between the two parties are still ongoing, with a clear desire from Torino to sign the player to strengthen their squad, especially given the team's need to reinforce certain positions in the upcoming phase of the season.

The main obstacle lies in the structure of the deal, as Napoli prefers the player to leave on a direct loan without any additional clauses, in order to preserve its sporting and future rights.

On the other hand, Torino is seeking to finalize the deal as a loan with an option to buy, keeping the negotiations ongoing as both parties work toward a mutually satisfactory compromise.
