As the transfer window enters its final hours, Fiorentina find themselves at the center of several defensive manoeuvres that could reshape its backline for the remainder of the season and beyond.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports that the most prominent storyline revolves around Pietro Comuzzo, the talented young centre-back who has caught the eye of Napoli. Fiorentina have set a steep asking price of 40 million euros for the 2005-born defender. Napoli are expected to make one last attempt to secure Comuzzo’s services before the window closes, with negotiations likely to continue into the night.
Meanwhile, Fiorentina are exploring the possibility of acquiring Daniele Ghilardi from Hellas Verona. This potential deal comes with an interesting twist – should Comuzzo remain with Fiorentina, the club may opt to purchase Ghilardi and immediately loan him back to Verona for the rest of the season. This arrangement would allow Fiorentina to secure a promising talent for the future while maintaining their current defensive setup.
In a move that is all but confirmed, Nicolas Valentini is set to make the switch from Fiorentina to Hellas Verona. The Argentine defender, who only joined Fiorentina at the beginning of January, is scheduled to sign his contract with Verona on Monday, February 4th, marking a quick turnaround in his Italian football journey.
