Bremer - Available versus Salernitana Bremer (ankle) has been included in Torino's squad list to face Salernitana Sunday.
Impact Bremer has been training fully for a few days after missing the last match with an ankle injury. He will likely get the nod in the back. He has posted five tackles, two interceptions and three clearances in his lone appearance.

Simone Verdi - Ruled out for Salernitana game Verdi will miss Sunday's game versus Salernitana due to a thigh pull, Torino informed.
Impact Verdi suffered the problem late in the week and is at risk to miss also the following game versus Salernitana. The new addition pushed him to a more limited role. Marko Pjaca, Josip Brekalo, Dennis Praet and Karol Linetty will pick up the slack.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Andrea Belotti - Will miss multiple games Belotti (lower leg) has been unable to run during the break and will sit out the next "three or four matches", coach Ivan Juric announced.
Impact Belotti was initially suspected to have suffered a fracture. While the early tests ruled it out, he is still going to be sidelined for a while due to a bruise and a edema in his fibula. Antonio Sanabria will shoulder the Torino attack while Belotti recovers. The coach could also opt to use a false-nine from time to time.

Bremer - On track to return Bremer (ankle) trained fully Wednesday, Torino announced.
Impact Bremer missed the last game due to an ankle sprain, and he managed to recover after a week of rehab. He will likely return to the starting XI against Salernitana, replacing either Armando Izzo or Koffi Djidji.

Andrea Belotti - Not dealing with major injury Belotti suffered a strong contusion during the most recent match versus Fiorentina and he will continue to be assessed throughout the break, Torino announced.
Impact Belotti underwent further testing as there was fear he sustained a fracture, but that is not the case. His availability for the match against Salernitana will hinge on how long it will take him to absorb the edema in his fibula.
SEPTEMBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Josip Brekalo - Joins Torino on loan Brekalo will spend the 2021-22 season on loan with Torino from VfL Wolfsburg.
Impact Brekalo made just one appearance off the bench in three matches for Wolves this year in which he registered one assist, two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created. The midfielder was a mainstay in the club's starting XI last year, starting 22 of 29 contests in which he racked up seven goals on 47 shots (21 on target). Brekalo should be in contention for a spot in the starting XI with Torino and could be a top-half fantasy option given his offensive acumen.
AUGUST 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Dennis Praet - Transfers to Torino Praet is returning to Serie A and has joined Torino on a permanent deal from Leicester City, the clubs announced.
Impact Praet played for three seasons at Sampdoria before moving to England. He appeared just in 15 league matches last season, scoring once and providing one assist. He is unlikely to be a major fantasy asset since he tallied two goals and three helpers in his most prolific campaign, however he should have a significant role and be able to produce across the board.
AUGUST 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
David Zima - Transfers to Torino Zima has joined Torino on a permanent deal from Slavia Prague, the club announced.
Impact Zima has already garnered significant experience despite his young age. He will compete with Armando Izzo, Ricardo Rodriguez and Koffi Djidji for minutes in the back. He has scored once in 54 matches with his previous team.
AUGUST 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Cristian Ansaldi - Comes off the bench versus Fiorentina Ansaldi (thigh) had five passes in nine minutes in Sunday's 1-2 loss to Fiorentina.
Impact Ansaldi made a just brief cameo upon recovering from some muscle fatigue that had cost him the opener. He commences the season behind Ola Aina on the left flank and will have to make up some ground to play as much as last season. Torino will host Salernitana in two weeks.
AUGUST 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Marko Pjaca - Makes sub appearances against Fiorentina Pjaca (knee) won one tackle and drew one foul in 22 minutes in Sunday's 1-2 loss to Fiorentina.
Impact Pjaca was hindered by knee soreness and did not start in this one despite a solid performance in the opener. He was ineffective when called upon. He will look to fully shake off the problem during the break. Torino will face Salernitana at home in two weeks.
AUGUST 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Andrea Belotti - Suffers lower leg injury Belotti was ruled out for international duties due to a fibula problem and will soon take an MRI to assess its severity, Tuttosport reports.
Impact Belotti got hurt during a tackle, but he managed to finish the game. He is facing a multi-week absence, although the situation will be clearer after the results of the tests. Antonio Sanabria would be first in line to absorb the minutes. Torino will host Salernitana in two weeks.

Vanja Milinkovic-Savic - Four saves in defeat Milinkovic-Savic made four saves during Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Fiorentina.
Impact Milinkovic-Savic put together a solid showing saving four of the six shots he faced, but was let down by the team in front of him. Unfortunately that team isn't likely to change much which will limit his fantasy value. He takes on Salernitana after the international break.
AUGUST 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Ola Aina - Shut down in loss Aina created one chance during Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Fiorentina.
Impact Aina has been a consistent starter since returning from loan to Torino, but was shut down Saturday. The wing-back only managed seven passes in 81 minutes on the pitch, putting together a poor showing. Next up is a showdown with Salernitana after the international break.
AUGUST 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Rolando Mandragora - Busy in loss Mandragora made two tackles and two clearances during Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Fiorentina.
Impact Mandragora had plenty to do Saturday, but failed to keep his side in the game. The midfielder is a consistent presence and can put up solid defensive numbers but has limited upside with his lack of offense. After the international break he will clash with Salernitana.
AUGUST 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Simone Verdi - Scores off bench Verdi scored once on one shot during Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Fiorentina.
Impact Verdi came off the bench with 23 minutes to play and made the difference, scoring late to bring the game to a one-goal deficit. It proved to be too little, too late, but it could help Verdi make his way into the starting XI. After the international break he will face a clash with Salernitana.
AUGUST 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Marko Pjaca - Dealing with knee problem Pjaca has been limited in practice in the last couple of days by knee soreness, Corriere dello Sport reports.
Impact Pjaca is likely to be available for Saturday's match against Fiorentina, but he might come off the bench, differently from the opener. Antonio Sanabria and Simone Verdi would be the top candidates to take his place.
AUGUST 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Cristian Ansaldi - Available versus Fiorentina Ansaldi (thigh) has recovered, but Ola Aina will continue starting on the left wing, coach Ivan Juric announced.
Impact Ansaldi has shaken off his minor muscular issue, but the coach prefers to have a more energetic player in the position. Ansaldi will try to take advantage of his limited minutes to change the initial hierarchy. He posted one goal and six assists last season.

Bremer - Ruled out for Fiorentina match Bremer will miss Saturday's game versus Fiorentina due to an ankle injury that is still being assessed, coach Ivan Juric announced.

AUGUST 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Tommaso Pobega - Moves to Torino Pobega has joined Torino on a season-long loan from Milan, the clubs announced.

Karol Linetty - Creates four chances versus Atalanta Linetty took three shots (zero on target), sent in two crosses (one accurate), created four scoring chances and won three duels in Saturday's 1-2 loss to Atalanta.
Impact Linetty was fielded in a very offensive position and also took care of some corner kicks, which helped him put together an interesting stat-line. He was not this big of an offensive menace in the past campaign, but he is generally good for four or five goals per season. Torino will face Fiorentina away Saturday.

Impact Bremer had a strong outing taking advantage of his physicality in the back, but his night was cut short by a knee problem that will be assessed in the next few days. Armando Izzo took his place and could substitute him also in Saturday's road game against Fiorentina.
