Vanja Milinković-Savić may no longer keep the cages of the Torino next season … but he is already holding the summer market in suspense. During the 2024/2025 season, Vanja Milinković-Savić won as one of the most impressive guards of Serie A. Present in the goals of the Torino 37 times, he accumulated 135 stops-the highest total of the season-and displayed a 76 %parades rate, just behind his rival Mile Svilar. Above all, he shone during the shooting sessions, stopping four penalties out of seven attempts (Detepui, Pulišić, Castro, Pašalić), a record in the five major European championships. His performance against Milan, with a decisive judgment on Christian Pulišić – the career's first missed penalty – strengthened his reputation.
With this spectacular season, Milinković – Savić has attracted the lusts of several major European clubs. A release clause of 20 million euros, valid until the end of July, would be activated both in Italy and abroad, proof of the trust of the Torino and the esteem of the market towards it. Rumors of discussion between those around him and Manchester United or Chelsea circulates, while the Napoli d'Antonio Conte would also be on the lookout. Urbano Cairo, president of the club, has not been praised, saying that without his porter, the Torino season would have been “very different”.
Naples in pole, Monaco pushes
According to our information, the value of Vanja Milinković-Savić, under contract until 2026, is today estimated between 18 and 20 million euros. An amount deemed reasonable by several European clubs, but the Torino, aware of the market and the potential of the player, does not rule out the idea of an exchange including a player in the operation. Naples would be in pole position in this file, despite the recent extension of Alex Meret. The club led by Antonio Conte is seduced by the profile of the Serbian and would be ready to include Cyril Ngonge in the deal to tip the scale.
Still according to our information, AS Monaco made concrete contacts with the Torino last week. The interest is real, reinforced by the excellent relations between the two directions, already at the origin of several transactions in the past (Glik, Singo, Maripán). However, the entourage of Milinković-Savić dense: the market is dense, several large clubs are looking for a goalkeeper this summer, and the names of Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and AC Milan are regularly mentioned. The player's clan wants to take the time to analyze the different tracks before deciding.
