The Premier League is heating up off the pitch, with Liverpool, Manchester City, and Tottenham Hotspur all circling Torino’s rising star Samuele Ricci.

According to Caught Offside, the 22-year-old Italian midfielder is attracting serious attention from England’s elite, with Torino valuing him at €35-40 million. While Serie A sides have been monitoring Ricci for months, it’s the Premier League trio looking most eager to secure his signature ahead of the summer window.

Why Premier League Clubs Want Ricci

Ricci’s performances in the heart of Torino’s midfield have been consistently impressive. Calm under pressure, tactically intelligent, and technically sound — he fits the mold of the modern midfielder. It’s no surprise that Liverpool see him as a strong alternative to Joao Gomes, should they miss out on the Wolves ace.

Tottenham, also in for Gomes, are now widening their radar. Ange Postecoglou is eager to bolster his midfield, although Spurs’ lack of Champions League football could be a stumbling block.

Meanwhile, Manchester City have already begun laying the groundwork. Pep Guardiola is eyeing a summer midfield revamp, and Ricci could be the perfect long-term partner for Rodri. With Nico Gonzalez reportedly on the way, Ricci could be next in line in City’s evolving engine room.

Premier League Move Looms

With growing English interest and a fair asking price, Ricci looks primed for a Premier League switch. Could he follow in the footsteps of fellow Italians like Jorginho and Sandro Tonali? The summer promises to be very interesting.
