Torino eager to retain Dzemaili

by Richard Field , 11 June 2009

Torino president Urbano Cairo says he would like to keep on loan Bolton midfielder Blerim Dzemaili.

As the Turin-based club get ready for life in Serie B next season, Cairo is keen to retain the services of his prominent players despite their relegation.

Dzemaili joined Torino on a season-long loan in September following a disappointing spell at Bolton.

The Torino president previously stated that he is keen to exercise the club's option to buy Dzemaili at the conclusion of his loan.

"It is true that we will evaluate offers for [Rolando] Bianchi and Dzemaili although I have no intention to part with these two players," Cairo told La Stampa.

"The goal is to keep the best players and set up a strong team, having the chance to compete at the highest level in a difficult championship as the Serie B."
