Isak Malcolm Kwaku Hien came close to joining Torino in the winter but the move fell through.

Footballghana.com understands that the Bergamo-based team is preparing to pay into the club's coffers the figure of 10 million euros.

Isak Malcolm Kwaku Hien would receive a salary of 1.3 million euros per season for four seasons, thus signing a contract expiring in June 2027

The 24-year-old joined Hellas Verona in August 2022 and has established himself as a key cog to the club. His current contract will expire in the summer of 2026.
