Genoa scout Omar Milanetto says M'Baye Niang could be a world star.

The former AC Milan striker has joined Torino, though has spent time with Genoa.

Milanetto said, “Torino to 'take care' of Niang? They'll help him to stop being just an eternal promise.

“If Niang, at the age of 23, realises he needs to grow up and that Toro can represent a real turning point for him, given he has also found Mihajlovic, then he'll become one of Serie A's best attackers.

“He can also be the next player to warrant a €100m release clause because I've seen very few players like him, technically and physically.

“He has talent, flair, brilliance and physical strength. He splits defences with his technique and power, plus he can play as a winger, a second striker or even a centre-forward.

“He had six, awesome months with us [at Genoa] in 2015. I hope he doesn't throw it all away now after his difficulties of the past 18 months."
