Fiorentina link continues
It was only yesterday I wrote an article regarding our bid for the 'Skilled Giant' and our seemingly continual association with Fiorentina recently.
That story centered around a possible future bid of £5.57 million (US$8.69m - AUS$13.22m - €8m) for Josip Iličić as reported by one of Italy's oldest regional newspapers. Later that day further news linking the two clubs surfaces.
One of the 'Summer Seven' Vlad Chiriches started his Spurs career as a disaster waiting to happen and then turned into one. While external news of clubs interested in him has been brief there have been informal discussions with his agent. Previously I have written that Italy looks the most likely destination for him and it is Italians Fiorentina who are said to be very interested in signing him.
Galatasaray have looked at Younes Kaboul, who has now joined the club he would never join, Sunderland, before turning their attention to Chiriches. Turkey is not one of the top five leagues in Europe though, they are a second tier league so it would not seem like a step forward in his career as a step back.
Basel were reported as having an interest when they wee coached by Paulo Sousa and he is the new coach of Fiorentina, who Prosport say have been watching Chiriches for some time. Centre-back Stefan Savić has joined La Lida side Atlético Madrid and head coach Sousa sees Chiriches as his replacement. It is a move that would seem to suit all parties and may revolve around the fee we may want.
In Turkey Galatasaray were said to be offering just £3.61 million (US$5.60m - AUS$7.26m - €5m) for Chiriches and reported we were looking for £5.04 million (US$7.78m - AUS$10.43m - €7m) having paid £6.61 million (US$10.29m - AUS$13.98m - €9.5m) at the exchange rates today. Any offer in the region of our price is likely to be accepted to hasten his departure.
