Osasuna sell Berenguer to Torino

Osasuna have confirmed the sale of Alex Berenguer to Torino in a deal worth up to €6.5million. Berenguer’s agent Juan Oyaga said last month a switch to Napoli was close, but no agreement could be reached with the Partenopei.

Fellow Serie A side Torino have instead snapped up the 22-year-old, who played 29 times in LaLiga last season, scoring once and contributing a team-high six league assists, although Osasuna were relegated after finishing 19th.

Berenguer – who had a €9million release clause – waived a condition of his contract entitling him to 15 per cent of the transfer fee, while Torino have also agreed to pay Osasuna a further €1.5m if they sell the Pamplona-born player to Basque club Athletic Bilbao.
