Che Adams - Likely to be an option versus Fiorentina Adams (undisclosed) "is feeling better and trained with the group," coach Marco Baroni announced.

Impact Adams was unavailable midweek but wasn't dealing with a serious issue and should be good to go for this one, although it remains to be seen whether he'll start as he has done in the past three matches, during which he has totaled seven shots (two on target) and five chances created and scored once. Duvan Zapata and Sandro Kulenovic would likely get the nod if he didn't.

Impact Adams made the provisional squad list and was expected to start, but he ended up on the stands due to some discomfort and will need to be re-evaluated ahead of Saturday's away game versus Fiorentina. Alieu Njie, Sandro Kulenovic and Duvan Zapata are the remaining options since Giovanni Simeone (calf) is still out.

Guillermo Maripan - Decent showing against Lecce Maripan recorded one chance created, eight clearances and two tackles (two won) in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Lecce.

Impact Maripan was less well-rounded than other Torino defenders, but did his part in stifling the opponents. He has posted at least one clearance in every game, totaling 121 in 21 appearances, with nine clean sheets. Additionally, he has posted one block in his last three showings.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Luca Marianucci - Brilliant debut versus Lecce Marianucci recorded one block, four clearances and three interceptions and won two of three tackles in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Lecce.

Impact Mariunucci was selected over Adrien Tameze to replace Ardian Ismajli (thigh) and filled the stat sheet in his second start of the season, as he was an afterthought at Napoli. His strong first showing will likely lead to more opportunities in the short term.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Valentino Lazaro - Fares well on both ends against Lecce Lazaro won five of five tackles and had one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 1-0 win against Lecce.

Impact Prati helped secure the result with his work on the defensive end in his cameo shortly after joining the team, but he won't be an option for the next game due to yellow card accumulation. Emirhan Ilkhan will continue starting at the position.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Ali Dembele - Unused sub in Lecce fixture Dembele (undisclosed) stayed on the bench in Sunday's 1-0 win over Lecce.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Marcus Pedersen - Fairly dynamic against Lecce Pedersen generated three shots (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-0 victory versus Lecce.

Impact Pedersen was more lively than in the previous two matches and registered a new season high in shots, but missed the mark in all of them. He's rounding back into shape following an injury. He has delivered three or more crosses in his last 13 showings, totaling 61 (11 accurate). Moreover, he has recorded one tackle in three games in a row, winning one.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Duvan Zapata - Fires four shots against Lecce Zapata drew three fouls and had four shots (two on goal), three clearances and two chances created in Sunday's 1-0 win versus Lecce.

Impact Zapata had his most productive display in a while, leading his team in attempts and setting a new season high, while filling in for Giovanni Simeone (calf), but Wladimiro Falcone denied his best efforts in brilliant fashion. His playing time in the next few matches will hinge on the starter's status. Torino bid farewell to Cyril Ngonge but added Sandro Kulenovic in the role. Zapata hadn't scored since early December and has logged seven shots (three on target) and three key passes in his last five outings (two starts).

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Nikola Vlasic - Dishes out assist versus Lecce Vlasic assisted once to go with two crosses (zero accurate) and three chances created and picked up his fifth yellow card in Sunday's 1-0 win over Lecce.

Impact Vlasic co-paced his side in key passes and contributed to the game-winning goal with a quality pass for Che Adams, returning to the stat sheet after five games, but he'll miss the Fiorentina clash due to yellow-card accumulation. If Gvidas Gineitis (thigh) doesn't return, Faustino Anjorin will be the top candidate to replace him.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Che Adams - Decides Lecce contest Adams scored one goal to go with two shots (one on target), one tackle (one won) and three chances created in Sunday's 1-0 win over Lecce.

Impact Adams snapped out of a nine-game slump with a relatively easy volley after shaking free in the box on a little ball over the top. He's up to four goals in the season and is taking on a bigger role sans Giovanni Simeone (calf). He has taken at least one shot in nine straight fixtures, totaling 21 attempts (five on target), assisting once during that span. Moreover, he has created at least one chance in the last five fixtures, racking up eight key passes.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Alberto Paleari - Keeps clean sheet versus Lecce Paleari had two saves and didn't concede in Sunday's 1-0 win against Lecce.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Ali Dembele - Available versus Lecce Dembele (undisclosed) has been selected for Sunday's game against Lecce.

FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Sandro Kulenovic - Heads to Torino Kulenovic has moved to Torino on a season-long loan with a conditional obligation to buy from Dinamo Zagreb.

He has scored and assisted once in eight Europa League appearances (two starts), adding four shots (three on target) and two key passes. He's replacing Cyril Ngonge and will compete with Giovanni Simeone, Che Adams, Duvan Zapata and Alieu Njie in a two-man attack.

JANUARY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Giovanni Simeone - Will stay out against Lecce Simeone (calf) won't be an option Sunday versus Lecce, Tuttomercatoweb reported.

Impact Simeone has continued to train separately because of a calf injury and won't be brought back until he's 100 percent to avoid a more serious issue. Either Duvan Zapata or Alieu Njie will partner with Che Adams since Cyril Ngonge just left the team.

JANUARY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Luca Marianucci - Joins Torino Marianucci is moving to Torino on loan from Napoli.

Impact Marianucci was buried in the depth chart at Empoli and appeared just twice (one start).

JANUARY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Matteo Prati - Moves to Torino Prati has transferred to Torino on loan with an option to buy from Cagliari.

He's replacing Kristjan Asllani and could unseat Emirhan Ilkhan as the deep-lying playmaker down the line.

Guillermo Maripan will resume starting in relief after being benched in the last couple of matches. Torino recently added Tchoca in the back, while the other backups, Adam Masina (hip) and Ali Dembele (undisclosed), are on the mend.

JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Valentino Lazaro - Lone bright spot versus COmo Lazaro created two scoring chances and had seven crosses (two accurate), one tackle (zero won) and one corner in Saturday's 6-0 loss versus Como.

Impact Lazaro was one of the only Torino players to have a decent performance despite the result, but it was too little to keep up with Como. He has launched multiple crosses in the last eight meetings, racking up 47 (eight accurate) and posting one assist, eight chances created and 15 corners in that stretch.

JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Nikola Vlasic - Struggles in Como contest Vlasic had one shot (zero on goal), one tackle (zero won) and one interception and drew two fouls in Saturday's 6-0 loss to Como.

He snapped a streak of five tilts with at least one cross in this one.

Impact Pedersen returned to the starting lineup after a month having dealt with an injury, as Zakaria Aboukhlal (thigh) was missing, and had a paltry display like most Torino players, although he managed to push his streak of games with at least three crosses to 12. He has totaled 57 (10 accurate) in that span, adding four shots (one on target), seven key passes and 13 tackles (nine won), but with no assists.
