The 24-year-old winger underwent a medical in Turin on Sunday and finalised his move on Monday afternoon.

According to Sky Sport Italia, the deal comprises an initial €8m fee, with a further €2m in performance-related add-ons.
Aboukhlal, who has 22 caps for Morocco, told Sky Sport Italia: “I’m ready to start. Toro are a great team with so much history. I think it was the right decision to come here.”
A product of the Willem II and PSV Eindhoven academies, Aboukhlal previously played for AZ Alkmaar before joining Toulouse in 2022. He scored seven goals and registered four assists in 26 Ligue 1 appearances last season.
Italian football journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed the player had accepted the club’s offer.
“It’s a done deal. Aboukhlal has already said yes to the Torino project,” Romano wrote on X.
The forward rose to international prominence at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, scoring in Morocco’s 2-0 group-stage win over Belgium.
His arrival is expected to bolster Torino’s attack as the club looks to improve on last season’s mid-table finish in Serie A.
