Torino are adamant about keeping midfielder Samuele Ricci despite interest from Manchester City and Arsenal. Journalist Fabrizio Romano claims that the rumors of a potential transfer are just media speculation and that there have been no approaches or proposals for Ricci. The Italian international has been praised for his quality, passing abilities, vision, and personality, making him a valuable asset for Torino.
Manchester City’s interest in Ricci may be due to the need for a replacement for the injured Rodri. However, Torino is reportedly reluctant to part ways with the midfielder and could demand a bid of around €50m (£42m) for his services.

Ricci, on the other hand, remains focused on his development and staying grounded amidst the transfer rumors.
Ricci has acknowledged the links to Manchester City but is prioritizing his performance on the pitch and improving his game.
