As Fiorentina prepare for the upcoming season, they have set their sights on Carlos Benavidez, a 25-year-old Uruguayan midfielder currently plying his trade with Alavés in the Spanish league, as a potential addition to their midfield ranks.
Sky Sport Italia detail how Benavidez, a defensive midfielder by trade, has impressed during his time in Spain, contributing 3 goals in 29 appearances for Alavés in the 2023-24 campaign. His performances have caught the attention of the Viola, who are exploring the possibility of bringing him to Florence.
The Uruguayan’s journey began at Defensor SC in his homeland before making the move to Independiente in Argentina in 2018. After three years in Argentina, Benavidez ventured to Spain, joining Alavés, where he has since made 68 appearances, scoring 5 goals and providing 1 assist.
While Benavidez is an intriguing option for Fiorentina’s midfield, the club is also considering other targets. Among the names mentioned are Marco Brescianini from Frosinone and Bondo from Monza, as the Viola aim to bolster their squad for the challenges ahead.
