Santos are ready to sell defender Lucas Verissimo to Torino for €10m, but only at certain conditions, according to Brazilian media.

The centre-back turned 23 yesterday and has also been linked with Lazio, Olympique Lyonnais and Olympique Marseille.

According to Gazeta Esportiva and Lancenet, Santos have said they are prepared to accept the €10m proposal from Torino.

However, Santos own only 80 per cent of the player’s rights, so they want the €10m to go to them and not be split with Verissimo’s agent.

Lyon are believed to be making another offer, but it has not yet been received.

Meanwhile, Torino have agreed terms with Genoa for centre-back Armando Izzo at €8m with €2m in bonuses.

It is entirely possible they will push to sign both defenders for this season.
