  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  City are said to be willing to present an "indispensable" offer for the Torino star, which could total €35 million (£29m/$37m). Ricci's contract runs until 2026, and the Serie A club are acutely aware of the prospect of the midfielder leaving for nothing when his deal expires.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Torino are poised to turn an immense profit on Ricci, having signed him for just €8.5m (£7m/$9m) in 2022 from Empoli, so the potential of him moving for quadruple that price will be a significant boon for the club.
