Torino, Cairo: “Zapata to Besiktas? I know nothing about it, we are working on the market”

The January transfer market is approaching. The protagonist of the last few hours is Torino's forward Duvan Zapata, who is at the center of numerous rumors linking him to Besiktas. The president of the "granata," Urbano Cairo, addressed the issue by answering some questions from journalists after the Torino-Cagliari match.

These were his words: “Zapata to Besiktas? I know nothing about this, it's completely new to me. Have any players asked to leave? No, they are very happy here.”

On the market: “Problem with the lists? For one who leaves, one enters, but if you bring someone in and don't let anyone out, then the list is blocked. How many reinforcements are needed? It's not a numerical issue; we need to get functional, quality players who can truly help us. Not just signing for the sake of signing. Can someone arrive immediately? I don't think so right away, but we'll see. We have ideas, and we are working on them.”

Disappointment or anger after the defeat against Cagliari: “Both. The wasted opportunity and therefore the anger. And the disappointment because you expected to be able to win it, but in the end, the goals you score are what count. Midfield reviewable? Everything can be improved. We created a lot, but then we didn't capitalize on it. Not the result I hoped for, not what I expected. It was an important, crucial match because we would have made it three in a row, but unfortunately, we conceded those two goals that are hard to watch. Is there some regret? It was a match with many chances, they had two shots on goal and scored two goals, and this is not good. We need to restart quickly and make amends.”
