Joe Hart to be best deal of the transfer window with Torino paying just £850,000 for his services

JOE HART could be the bargain of the window with Torino landing him for just £850,000.

Manchester City relegated the England No1 to reserve keeper - with Claudio Bravo brought in and Willy Caballero promoted above him - so they are paying the lion’s share of his £135,000 a-week wages to get him out of sight and mind.

The Italian minnows are paying just over £23,000 of his City wage a week, to take him to Serie A until the end of the season in May – a total of 36 weeks.

The Italian side finished 12^th in the league last season so could only stump up one million euros for the Etihad outcast.

Most of the top clubs across Europe already have their first-choice shot-stopper selected and are a couple of games into the new season, so the former Shrewsbury man’s options were limited.
