Football Italia exclusively reported Torino’s interest in Oristanio last month.

Torino’s negotiations with Venezia have intensified in recent hours.

The Granata and their new coach Marco Baroni want to sign two new attacking wingers this summer and remain in talks with Napoli for Cyril Ngonge as well.

Parma are also interested in Oristanio and the Ducali have also opened talks with Venezia, but Torino are currently leading the race for the 22-year-old.

Oristanio is under contract with Serie B side Venezia until June 2029.

He has five goals and four assists in 62 Serie A appearances with the Lagunari and Cagliari.

Last season, he scored three times in 37 league games with Venezia, which was not enough to avoid relegation to the second division.
