According to the Italian media Calcium Mercato, the Fiorentina has his sights on Maxi Gomez as the main option to replace Dusan Vlahović, who will leave in the summer transfer market due to the interest he has generated in most of the greats in Europe.
The Serbian striker, who is the Viola team’s current top scorer this season with 19 goals in 23 games played in all competitions, made the decision not to renew his contract and leave the club in the summer transfer market, taking into account that his bond ends in the summer of 2023 and it is the last option that the club will have to be able to get money for him. A necessary sale to be able to rebuild the team and continue growing hand in hand with Vicenzo Italiano.
A player asking for a change
Fiorentina, which aims to get into the fight to qualify for the UEFA Champions League, intends to incorporate a new renowned center forward to cover the space that its main star will leave free and maintain a high quota of goals to follow competing locally against Inter Milan, AC Milan, Napoli, Atalanta, Juventus and Lazio. And the first name that appears on the agenda is that of Maxi Gómez.
The Uruguayan striker is not going through his best moment at Valencia CF and intends to leave because he does not like the way the club’s board works. He has only 2 goals in 17 games this season, a sign of his low level and how little he has grown at Mestalla.
The Che team, with whom his contract ends in the summer of 2024, is not very interested in selling him unless they meet his economic demands, but Fiorentina will have a good amount of money to invest and close his arrival. Juventus is another club that has shown interest in him due to the possible departure of Álvaro Morata.
Other names that sound strong are those of Andrea Bellotti and Julián Álvarez.
