According to Gazzetta, Openda is expected to land at Turin’s Caselle Airport at around 12:30.

Openda is the second signing completed by the Bianconeri in the last 24 hours, as the Serie A giants had also reached an agreement to sign Edon Zhegrova from Lille.

The Bianconeri had previously completed just two signings this summer: Jonathan David on a free transfer and Joao Mario in a player plus cash swap deal from Porto FC.
