Despite his advanced age as a professional player, Italian midfielder Emanuele Giaccherini who currently plays for Bologna, has found a second youth after the top class performances he gave at the Euros this summer under manager Antonio Conte. The player is looking to land the last great contract of his career before he retires, the option seems clear as a Napoli offer has come to his attention.
His agent Furio Valcareggi told Radio CRC: "We're almost there, it's all done for Giaccherini, the last few details are being ironed out with Sunderland. The boy is very happy. It was a choice made by him and his wife. He's finally getting what he deserves after being underestimated for years."
On Torino's interest, Valcareggi also said that: "We had an agreement but then came an offer from Napoli. [Torino chairman Urbano] Cairo may not agree with our choice but he will understand why. The career of a footballer is short and everyone has the right to choose. It was inevitable that an offer by Napoli would be answered affirmatively."
