Torino's pursuit of defenders Pietro Comuzzo and Eray Comert has hit a snag, with the club's negotiations for goalkeeper Lorenzo Perri stalled by Leeds United, according to sources close to the deals. The Italian Serie A side had been expected to finalize the transfers this week, but the impasse over Perri's move to Leeds has created a domino effect.
Comuzzo, a 21-year-old center-back from Fiorentina, and Comert, a 28-year-old Swiss international from Valencia, were both identified as key targets to strengthen Torino's backline. However, the club's financial plans rely on the sale of Perri, a 23-year-old goalkeeper, to Leeds United for a fee reported in the region of €8 million.
Leeds United, currently in the Championship, have yet to agree on personal terms with Perri, delaying the transfer. Torino officials are now working to resolve the situation, with the transfer window closing on August 31. The club remains confident that the deals will go through, but time is running short.
