Three potential destinations for Arsenal outcast Lucas Torreira this summer

The
26-year-old
Uruguay
international
spent
the
last
season
on
loan
at
Fiorentina
from
Arsenal
after
losing
a
spot
under
Mikel
Arteta.

But
his
move
to
Fiorentina
evolved
to
be
a
brilliant
signing
where
he
made
31
appearances
in
the
league.
He
also
managed
to
win
the
club’s
player
of
the
month
accolade
thrice
during
the
season.

Following
a
brilliant
campaign,
Torreira
was
keen
to
join
them
permanently,
and
the
Serie
A
side
was
expected
to
trigger
the
€15
million
buy
option.
However,
the
negotiations
went
lateral
and
they
have
now
declined
to
make
any
permanent
move.
Torreira
does
not
want
to
play
for
Arsenal
again
hence
a
stay
at
Emirates
is
not
an
option
anymore.

The
player
is
seeking
an
exit
way
now
and
if
some
of
the
reports
are
to
be
believed
three
sides
have
already
shown
an
interest
in
him:

AS
Roma

Mourinho
is
in
the
market
to
strengthen
his
side
further
after
a
successful
campaign
in
a
bid
to
secure
a
Champions
League
spot
next
season
and
adding
more
midfield
options
is
reportedly
one
of
his
top
preferences
among
others.
They
have
already
finalised
a
deal
for
Nemanja
Matic,
who
will
join
the
club
in
due
course.
But
the
Portuguese
manager
is
still
looking
to
add
an
energic
box-to-box
presence
and
reportedly
has
enquired
about
the
midfielder.

Lazio

The
midfielder
has
reportedly
also
been
offered
to
Lazio
with
Maurizio
Sarri
keen
to
add
more
reinforcements
in
the
middle
of
the
park.
Star
midfielder
Sergej
Milinkovic-Savic
has
been
tipped
to
make
a
move
in
the
summer
and
it
could
force
Lazio
to
look
for
new
options
in
the
midfield.
Sarri
who
reportedly
wanted
the
midfielder
last
season
as
well
is
expected
to
return
with
an
offer
this
summer.

Valencia

La
Liga
side
Valencia
are
another
side
showing
interest
in
him.
The
Mestalla
side
have
appointed
Gennaro
Gattuso
as
the
new
manager
who
is
well
aware
of
the
Urugya
midfielder’s
talent
due
to
his
former
stint
in
Serie
A
as
manager.
He
is
high
on
the
Italian
coach’s
wishlist
ahead
of
next
season
and
the
club
could
look
for
a
cut-price
deal
at
this
stage.
