Nikola Vlasic could still be in line for a surprise return to West Ham United at the end of the season.
West Ham allowed Nikola Vlasic to join Torino on a season-long loan in the summer of 2022.

The Croatia international never fulfilled his potential at the London Stadium, thanks in no small part to David Moyes and reluctance to play him in his correct position.
It seems as though there is still a chance that the 25-year-old will play for West Ham again though…
Nikola Vlasic could still make surprise West Ham return
Torino director of football Davide Vagnati has been speaking to Torino Granata about his plans for the summer transfer rwindow.
With numerous players on loan with the Turin club, Vagnati is still yet to decide which ones he wants to keep permanently:
“We have an idea of who to redeem, but these last few games will surely give us some answers.”
So, if Vlasic doesn’t impress during Torino’s final handful of games this season, he may well head back to the London Stadium.
The 25-year-old began the 2022/23 campaign in fine form, but has gone off the boil since domestic football resumed at the end of December.
Vlasic has bagged four goals and five assists in 31 games for Torino (Transfermarkt) – not a bad return, that’s for sure.
I actually think that Nikola Vlasic would be a welcome addition to the current West Ham squad in the summer, as long as Moyes is prepared to use him in his correct position of course.
Whether there’s any chance of that happening remains to be seen though.
