Torino FC and Giovanni Simeone may soon part ways. This is the rumor that has been circulating with insistence in Argentina in recent days. The Cholito, in fact, has never openly excluded the possibility of leaving Italy, manifesting a certain nostalgia for his own country and, in particular, for River Plate, the club where he grew up before embarking on his European football adventure. In recent hours, a video from South American transfer expert César Luis Merlo has been making the rounds on social media, providing further details on the situation. According to the journalist, River Plate has already taken concrete steps to bring Simeone back to Argentina, placing him at the center of a new ambitious project. César Luis Merlo has revealed that Giovanni Simeone would be pushing to return to Argentina, with River Plate in the front row to welcome him. The Buenos Aires club would be ready to assign him a central role in its attacking department, making him one of the key points of reference for the new technical project. Giovanni Simeone is in Argentina. Next week he will be in Italy: there was a contact a few days ago between River Plate and Torino Amichevolmente, the president of Torino said to River that he does not want to sell the player. Simeone next week will go personally to Italy and will tell the president of Toro his intention to play at River. They will sit down and try to find an agreement that will serve all parties because his intention is to play at River. Despite the will of Urbano Cairo to keep Giovanni Simeone, the position of the striker seems to be different. For a long time, the Cholito has hinted at the desire to return to Argentina and, precisely for this reason, in the coming weeks, contacts between all parties involved may intensify. Simeone arrived in granata just over a year ago, strongly wanted by President Cairo, who has always considered him an ideal profile for the Torino project. His season, on the other hand, has fully convinced: the 11 goals scored have confirmed the value of the former Napoli attacker, so much so that the idea of the society would be to continue the path together at least for another season. The feeling, however, is that the player's will may have a decisive weight in the evolution of the situation. Torino has invested almost 10 million euros to secure his contract and, if a sale were to occur, the club would expect a significant offer. At the moment, however, the society's line remains clear: not to give up easily one of the key points of reference of the granata attack.
