Nigeria international full back Ola Aina is closing in on a return to the English Premier League with Crystal Palace reportedly close to reaching an agreement to sign him from Torino.
Torino are open to letting the 25 year old leave the club at the end of the season as his sale will enable them generate funds to strengthen other areas of priority in the team.
Aina has played 19 games in the Serie A this season but with a year left on his deal, Torino are keen on trading him this summer for a fee in the region of 10-12 million euros according to Torino.granata.it.
Two seasons ago he spent the entire season on loan to Fulham but couldn’t save them from beating the drop to the English Premier League. It is believed they are also among teams interested in signing him in the summer.
The former Chelsea youngster is also keen on a return to England, where he hopes to get sufficient game time to help protect his status as a regular in the senior national team of Nigeria.
