I. Ilić leaving Torino?
Despite many transfer rumors, Ilic has remained at Torino. He has benefited from the new atmosphere in the team and has taken on more responsibility.
Ilic seemed destined for Russia, but he remained at the center of the project and even started scoring. He scored a delightful equalizer and contributed to the second goal.
The transfer to Zenit Saint Petersburg failed.
Ivan Ilic was very close to a transfer to Zenit Saint Petersburg, but his future at Torino remains uncertain.
The president of Zenit Saint Petersburg, Medvedev, denied rumors of a government halt on the transfer. He stated that there are 40 days left in the market, and the transfer is based on sporting and financial factors. The technical director of Torino, Davide Vagnati, confirmed ongoing discussions and emphasized Ilic's importance to Torino.
Ivan Ilic is in negotiations to transfer from Torino to Zenit San Pietroburgo for a total amount of 25 million euros, including bonuses. The transfer is complex and ongoing. Torino's technical director, Davide Vaganti, has confirmed discussions are happening, but no specific timeline has been set for completion.
Torino and Zenit Saint Petersburg have agreed on a 25 million euro deal, including bonuses, for Ivan Ilic. However, an agreement between the Russian club and the Serbian player has not yet been reached.
Ivan Ilic was expected to soon become a player for Zenit Saint Petersburg, but the situation has not yet reached completion. After days of negotiations between the Russian club and the player, the agreement seemed almost finalized based on an offer of 22 million euros plus three million in bonuses. However, Ilic's arrival at Torino's training camp in Pinzolo has raised new doubts about the successful completion of the transfer.
Ivan Ilic is set to transfer from Torino to Zenit San Pietroburgo. After days of negotiations between the Russian club and the player, an agreement is almost finalized. The two clubs have already reached a deal based on an offer of 22 million euros plus an additional 3 million euros in bonuses. The decisive factor was the salary increase, with Ilic set to earn 3.5 million euros net per season plus bonuses in Russia.
Transfer of Ivan Ilic to Zenit Saint Petersburg for 25 million EUR.
Ivan Ilic, a 23-year-old Serbian player, was acquired by Torino in January 2023 for 16 million euros. Zenit St. Petersburg, a wealthy club controlled by the gas giant Gazprom, has shown strong interest. Through intermediaries, Zenit has initiated contacts with Torino and the player's entourage, offering 25 million euros. They are also discussing a substantial contract for Ilic, potentially offering at least 3 million euros net per season. Despite ongoing conflict with Ukraine and European sanctions, FIFA regulations permit such transfers to or from Russia. With Ilic now out of the European Championship, Zenit has moved swiftly, receiving immediate approval from Torino due to the 25 million euro offer. The Russians will now try to convince Ilic to accept the offer, possibly increasing the salary offer.
Ivan Ilic has been a significant investment for Torino and has shown great potential in a few matches. His qualities and young age make him a player with a great future. However, with the departure of Juric, his major sponsor, Ilic could also be sacrificed in the market. This could be a way to reinvest the proceeds to please the coach, who will likely be Vanoli unless there are shocks.
The performance of Ivan Ilic with Torino started badly and continued in the same vein. Torino will be open to negotiating his exit in the summer, as long as any potential offers do not lead to a substantial loss. It's unlikely he could be placed with a Serie A competitor, at certain figures, but who knows if the right proposal could come from England or Arab countries.
