Lucas Perri’s move to Torino has entered its final stages after he was granted permission to travel, with Leeds United now appearing ready to let the goalkeeper complete the switch. The deal is expected to be a loan with an option to buy, although the formal registration steps are still to come.
- Perri is set to join Torino from Leeds United on loan with an option to buy.
- Leeds have given the goalkeeper permission to travel as the switch moves forward.
- Torino have not yet confirmed the move with an official squad update or registration announcement.
Lucas Perri’s Move to Torino
Lucas Perri is edging towards Torino from Leeds United on a loan deal that would include an option to buy.
Perri made 16 Premier League starts for Leeds in 2025, recording 37 saves and three clean sheets. Before that, he registered 33 Ligue 1 starts in 2024, making 114 saves and keeping 10 clean sheets, which gives Torino a clear reason to view him as a ready-made option.
Some details are still unresolved. Perri’s loan length, any eventual purchase fee, the timing of his registration and his exact squad role have yet to be clarified.
Torino’s Goalkeeping Plans and Perri’s Next Step
If the move is finalised, there is still no confirmation over whether Perri would arrive as Torino’s first choice or to provide competition.
Travel, final documentation and registration are the next steps for Perri. No firm timetable has emerged for an official announcement or for when he could first be available.
Perri also appears to have picked Torino despite late interest from Olympique de Marseille, which leaves the Serie A club well placed to finish the process. Leeds would then be expected to enter the market for another goalkeeper, with any new arrival likely to provide competition and cover for James Trafford.
