Hull City have suffered a double setback, with Torino confirming the loan signing of Niccolò Fortini, and Juventus forward Jonathan David reportedly rejecting an approach.
Torino announced Fortini's arrival on Friday. According to TMW, the loan is worth €500,000 and includes a €9.5m purchase option.
The versatile Italian full-back arrives from Fiorentina. He had also held talks with Hull City but chose Torino last week.
Fiorentina had been due to keep Fortini under contract until June 2027, and extended it to 2030 before sanctioning the move.
Tuttosport claims David has turned down an approach from the Premier League club, with the Canada international aiming to remain in Turin. He does not appear to be in Juventus' plans, and the club hope to sell him after just one season.
