Transfer: Italian Serie A Giant Rejects Nigeria International

Italian Serie A side Torino has refused to permanently sign Nigerian International David Okereke, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Okereke arrived at Toro in January. After the departures of Karamoh, Seck and Radonjic on loan, he needed a striker to partner with Zapata, Sanabria and Pellegri. 

The Nigerian arrived on loan from Cremonese, although he had struggled with the grey-reds in Serie B in the first part of the season, in the past in Serie A with Venezia and Cremonese he had shown good performance.

However, he didn't make an impact in the club having played 9 matches. 

He will return to Cremonese who will also be campaigning in the elite division next season.
