Former Spurs target Mohamed Salah. may be for sale

Italian news outlet Tuttosport has focussed an article on Fiorentina and looked at their possible departures this summer.

Josip Iličić is a 28-year-old (29 in January) Slovenian attacking midfielder who has been linked to Spurs, Liverpool and Leicester City amongst others, but they report that paulo Souza, the Fiorentina manager, wants to keep Iličić and that he wants to stay.

The nezt name though may be of interest to us as we have tried to sign him before and the article suggest Fiorentina are going to 'sacrifice' 23-year-old (24 in June) Mohamed Salah. He is an Egyptian international winger who joined Chelsea but didn't make the grade before being loaned out. He was a part of the Basel team that tormented us at White Hart Lane and a part of the Fiorentina team that put us out of the UEFA Europa league. We got our revenge over Fiorentina this season before going out to Borussia Dortmund.

Salah has been on a season-long loan at Roma where he has scored 14 serie A goals in 34 games.

They also mention that 24-year-old Matías Vecino Falero, a Uruguayan, central midfielder is wanted by Napoli and  21-year-old Senegalese striker Khouma El Hadji is wanted by Crystal Palace.
