Man U told to Stump-up £16million for Ogbonna
ALEX FERGUSON has been told he must cough up at least £16million to land centre-back Angelo Ogbonna from Torino.
The Manchester United boss has been tracking Ogbonna since the start of the Serie A season — with Old Trafford scouts running regular checks on the defender.
Torino’s sporting director Gianluca Petrachi confirmed: “I guarantee there are observers of many foreign clubs who follow our games, including United’s scouts.
“Most of the time they come just to see Ogbonna because he is a player who has great potential.
“Last year we refused £10m for him but it is clear he is worth more than £16m.
“Angelo has the desire to do better but I believe he should continue to grow with Torino.”
Ogbonna, 24, was part of Italy’s Euro 2012 squad after helping Torino storm to promotion.
