FC Turin as a stepping stone to the world’s big clubs? Although many questioned this when David Zima transferred from Slavia to this traditional Italian club, it turns out that it can be done. At least his colleague from the defence had a great year and now he should be rewarded.

The name Gleison Bremer means nothing to you? Then know that this stopper was one of the best players in Italian Serie A last season. WhoScored ranked him 12th in the average rating, and there is no defender ahead of him.

The 25-year-old Brazilian has also played alongside David Zima this season, a native of Hana, a Sigma Olomouc alumnus and former player of Slavia Prague, who is now 21 years old.

Bremer came to Turin at a similar age for a similar amount. In his first season, he didn’t even play nearly as much as the Moravian defender. However, he has gradually developed into one of the mainstays and best players in the competition, at least at his position.

Transfermarkt has valued him at an estimated €35 million, but after a great season, Torino will probably ask for a million more for him.

And no wonder. According to La Stampa, it is not only the Italian big clubs, led by the new Italian champions AC Milan, who are interested in the Brazilian stopper.

For AC Milan, however, the priority is not him, but Sven Botman, who is being courted by Newcastle, who will be able to outbid the Italian champion. If he succeeds, the Rossoneri will pounce on Bremer.

However, even with him, they must expect a tough fight. Giants such as Chelsea and Bayern Munich are considering signing Zim’s teammate, while Tottenham Hotspur are also monitoring the situation around the player.

In addition, Inter Milan, who were voted the best defender in Serie A in the 2021/22 season, have long been seeking to return to the Italian throne, which they can top off by beating their city rivals on the transfer market.
