Rumour Mill: Reds linked with Italian winger

Last updated : 21 November 2013 By Kevin Smith

Arsenal are reportedly frontrunners to sign the 26-year-old, although he has denied any contact yet.

Club president Urbano Cairo appears to know nothing about the rumours, claiming "I haven't received any calls from England for Cerci, even if I read in the newspapers that there is interest from British clubs. As far as I am concerned, there's no truth to it. Will he stay at Torino in January? Of course."

Yesterday's report in The Mirror appeared more like a promotional advert for the player and other sources are now picking up on the story.

There does seem to be a lot of spin going on by agents, and it is a massive coincidence that the player was at Craven Cottage on Monday night for Italy's friendly with Nigeria, so don't read too much into these reports just yet.
