Report – Fiorentina Ready To Hijack Cagliari Efforts To Sign Inter Milan Striker After Completing Crucial Sale | OneFootball

Fiorentina will likely revisit their interest in Inter Milan outcast Sebastiano Esposito amid persistent interest from Cagliari.

Per FCInterNews, La Viola must complete one crucial sale before reopening talks with the Nerazzurri.

Inter have put Sebastiano Esposito up for sale after new boss Cristian Chivu deemed him surplus to requirements.

However, the San Siro club will only sell the 23-year-old for €12 million.

Meanwhile, there’s no shortage of interest, with several teams vying for Esposito’s signature.

Esposito has been on Fiorentina’s radar since the start of the summer.

Indeed, new boss Stefano Pioli is an admirer of the young gun and wants to bring him to Stadio Artemio Franchi.

However, Fiorentina must address Lucas Beltran’s future before relaunching talks with Inter.

Beltran no longer has a place in Florence and could soon depart Serie A.

Then, Fiorentina will make a concrete offer for Esposito, who has attracted Cagliari’s attention.

Yet, the Sardinians cannot afford a permanent transfer, which could tip the scales in Fiorentina’s favor.
