Fiorentina’s transfer market activities are far from over as the club intensifies its search for midfield reinforcements. The Viola are targeting at least one new midfielder, with two names emerging as prime candidates: Orel Mangala and Martin Baturina.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports how while Mangala was reportedly close to joining Everton, the deal has not been finalized, opening a window of opportunity for the Italian club. Fiorentina is poised to make an attempt to secure Mangala’s services, potentially hijacking the move to the Premier League.
Meanwhile, the pursuit of Martin Baturina from Dinamo Zagreb continues. The Croatian midfielder, who recently helped his team qualify for the Champions League group stage, remains a top priority for Fiorentina. Despite facing stiff competition from other clubs, the Viola are persistent in their efforts to bring Baturina to Florence.
These midfield targets come amid speculation surrounding the future of Sofyan Amrabat, whose potential departure has accelerated Fiorentina’s search for reinforcements. The club is keen to strengthen its midfield options to maintain competitiveness in both domestic and European competitions.
