Parma are actively preparing for life after Dennis Man, as the Romanian winger edges closer to a move to Fiorentina. Gianlcua Di Marzio reports that the club has identified Jacob Ondrejka, a 22-year-old Swedish winger from Royal Antwerp, as their primary target to fill the potential void.
Negotiations between Parma and Royal Antwerp are progressing rapidly, with the Italian club tabling a €6.5 million bid for Ondrejka’s permanent transfer. This offer aligns closely with Antwerp’s valuation, suggesting that an agreement could be imminent.
Meanwhile, Fiorentina’s pursuit of Man continues to gain momentum. The Viola have long admired the 26-year-old Romanian, who has impressed this season with 4 goals and 4 assists in 21 appearances. Fiorentina’s general director recently emphasized the club’s commitment to strengthening their squad under manager Raffaele Palladino, with Man emerging as a key target.
Fiorentina’s interest in Man intensified after missing out on Luiz Henrique, who joined Zenit St. Petersburg for approximately €35 million. The Florence-based club is now pushing to reach an agreement with Parma, aiming to secure Man’s services as they look to bolster their attacking options following the arrival of Michael Folorunsho.
