Fiorentina is exploring the possibility of signing Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof as they look to strengthen their backline for the upcoming season. The Swedish center-back has emerged as a potential target for the Serie A club.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports that the 30-year-old Lindelof has found himself further down the pecking order at Old Trafford following United’s recent acquisition of Matthijs de Ligt. With just one year remaining on his current contract, Lindelof could be open to a move in search of more regular playing time.
The Viola are exploring the feasibility of a deal for Lindelof. Key factors under consideration include:
– Potential transfer fee or loan arrangement with United
– Lindelof’s current wages (approximately €3 million per year)
– Possibility of United subsidizing a portion of his salary
Fiorentina’s management is now working to understand the conditions under which United might allow Lindelof to leave. They are also assessing the financial aspects of any potential deal.
If successful, Lindelof would join recent arrivals like Moise Kean, Andrea Colpani, David de Gea, and Albert Gudmundsson as Fiorentina continues to bolster their squad ahead of the new campaign.
The addition of an experienced international defender like Lindelof could provide a significant boost to Fiorentina’s backline as they aim to improve upon last season’s performance in Serie A and European competitions.
