A product of the Leicester City youth academy, he had loan spells at Rochdale, Doncaster Rovers and Oxford United.
In the current campaign, he made 27 appearances for the Foxes, scoring one goal and adding an assist from central defence.
According to Sky Sport Italia transfer pundit Gianluca Di Marzio, the talks are in progress between the two clubs, although there is currently a gap between the offer and demand.
It is claimed that Leicester City want between €6m and €7m to release the player, which is beyond Toro’s valuation.
Nelson is by no means the only candidate for the Toro defence, because another option is 24-year-old SudTirol player Andrea Giorgini.
He already worked with new Torino coach Ignazio Abate when on loan at Juve Stabia in Serie B last season.
