Matteo Darmian in high demand

Torino full-back Matteo Darmian is on the radar of both Juventus and Roma, La Gazzetta dello Sport has learned.

The two clubs have been keeping close tabs on the 24-year-old for a while, and they are expected to step up their interest in the coming weeks.

But, while Torino initially wanted around €10 million for the highly rated defender, the price is likely to increase considerably now that Darmian has starred for Italy at the 2014 World Cup.

Granata have no plans to cash in on their star player this summer, but they are unlikely to stand in his way if he expresses desire to join a top Italian club.

Matteo Darmian had started his career at AC Milan, but it was a switch to Torino in the summer of 2011 that proved crucial for his development.

The right-back has since amassed a total of 100 league appearances for Granata, scoring 1 goal in the process.
