Toro, look who shows up again: Seck returns to Grande Torino as an opponent

Loaned to Frosinone in the January transfer window, Demba Seck will meet his former teammates again in Sunday’s match

Between one match and another, Torino continues to hope for a qualification for Europe which appears increasingly complicated. After the home draw in the derby, in the next round of the championship the Granata will play at home again, and will host Frosinone. It can therefore be said that, in addition to the more celebrated Soulé, Cheddira and Reinier, the Granata’s European hopes will also pass through the feet of…Seck.

Seck returns to Turin, between past and future

The Senegalese was in fact loaned by Torino in the last days of the winter transfer market session to the Ciociaria, who needed an attacking player. Having found little space in the first half of the season, the class of 2001 accepted the proposal from the Lazio club, finding themselves in a totally different environment from the one they had been in for two and a half years. Looking for redemption after i 0 goals and assists in 38 appearances in the granata shirt, not even with Di Francesco’s team, however, the former Spal player has managed to improve his tally so far. In the 10 games played with the yellow-blues, the attacking midfielder did not score any goals or decisive passes for his teammates, standing out more for errors (the last one against Napoli) than for positive plays.

Return to Torino (waiting for a decision)

Seck was therefore unable to give Frosinone that leap in quality that was needed to move away from the red zone of the standings, and for this reason too it is necessary to imagine his return to Piedmont at the end of the season. The formula of the agreement for his transfer to the Ciociari did not in fact include a redemption clause, but it is still unlikely that director Angelozzi will make himself heard at the top of the Granata to ask for an extension of the loan or even to negotiate a permanent purchase. The attacker will therefore almost certainly return, but only in passing.
