Beltran and the difference between reality and fantasy | OneFootball

Lucas Beltran is on the market at Fiorentina, but only with the right conditions, as there are significant issues with reporting of Flamengo and Zenit St. Petersburg interest in the €15m-rated striker.

In many ways, Beltran is similar to Hans Nicolussi Caviglia, who has been publicly linked with Fiorentina despite the fact there is no chance of this happening and Venezia want at least €10m to let the midfielder go.

The Viola are not interested in Nicolussi Caviglia regardless, and could bring someone new in for the attack even if Beltran remains.

It is also worth pointing out that while the Argentine is not considered untouchable by any means, they still require the right conditions to let him leave.

That means a minimum of the €15m that Flamengo had offered, but a proposal that the player himself had rejected.

If something interesting were to emerge for him in Europe, that scenario would be taken into consideration.

Zenit, who were linked with Beltran over the last few days, have so far not contacted Fiorentina, not even to ask for information on the striker.
