Sweden-Gambia left winger Alieu Njie of Torino is being linked with a move to Lecce, with the 21-year-old Serie A prospect reported as a target as the Apulian club weighs up attacking reinforcements.
The Torino wide man, valued at €3.00m on Transfermarkt, is the subject of speculation over a summer switch within Serie A, according to the latest transfer listings dated 16 June 2026. The reported probability of the move is currently marked only as “?”, underlining that talks – if any – are at an early stage and no agreement is in place.
Njie, who wears the No 92 shirt for Torino, is a right-footed left winger and part of a growing generation of dual-nationality talents with ties to both Sweden and The Gambia. Born on 14 May 2005 in Stora Tuna and standing at 1.85m, he offers a blend of height and pace in the wide areas, attributes that are thought to appeal to Lecce as they look to add depth out wide.
The youngster’s contractual situation at Torino is opaque, with no public information on when his deal expires and no confirmed extension on record. That uncertainty has fuelled suggestions he could become a free agent in the near future if no renewal is agreed, a scenario that would significantly alter the dynamics of any move and potentially allow Lecce to act without a transfer fee.
Recent match data from the current campaign remains limited in the public domain, but Njie has featured in Torino’s senior set-up in Serie A, staking a claim as an option on the flanks.
With his market value still relatively modest and his career at an early stage, a transfer to Lecce – if it materialises – could prove a pivotal step, offering the winger a clearer pathway to regular minutes and a platform to enhance both his reputation in Italy and his international prospects.
