Press reports have confirmed that negotiations between Italian club Torino and French club Nantes regarding the transfer of Moroccan Zakaria Aboukhal have entered a serious phase at the present time.

Nantes is working on loaning the player with the option to purchase at the end of the loan period, with the French club covering at least 50% of the player's salary, which is estimated to be around 550,000 euros net.

Despite the progress in negotiations, Abu Khalal has not yet given his final approval for the transfer, leaving the deal unresolved for now.

Both parties are awaiting the player's approval to complete the official steps and announce the deal officially in the coming days, with financial negotiations potentially playing a decisive role in determining the future of the Moroccan international.
