Report – Fiorentina To Move For Inter Milan Star For Flamengo Bound Striker | OneFootball

Fiorentina are reportedly ready to move to sign Inter Milan striker Sebastiano Esposito after selling Lucas Beltran to Flamengo.

This according to Italian outlet TuttoMercatoWeb. They report that Beltran will leave in a deal worth €15 million in total.

Sebastiano Esposito is currently part of Inter Milan’s senior squad once again.

The Italy Under-21 striker had spent last season on loan with Empoli. However, that loan deal came to an end, and the Tuscans did not sign him on a permanent basis.

Therefore, Sebastianio Esposito travelled with the Inter squad to the United States for the Club World Cup. He appeared in all four of their matches at the tournament, starting two.

It looks like virtually a foregone conclusion that Sebastiano Esposito will leave Inter this summer, however.

And there have been a few clubs to show an interest in the 23-year-old.

Cagliari have shown a strong interest in Esposito’s signature. However, they have not managed to get a deal for the Inter striker over the line.

Meanwhile, Fiorentina have long looked to be keen on signing Esposito. His loan spell with their Tuscan rivals Empoli appears to have convinced them.

However, the key matter for La Viola has always been making space in their squad with sales.

Lucas Beltran has long looked the player to make way. However, he has been sitting on the fence regarding a move to Flamengo, as it would entail leaving Europe.

However, according to TuttoMercatoWeb, Beltran has decided to accept the move for Flamengo.

The Brazilians will pay Fiorentina a fee of €12 million plus €3 million in add-ons. And with that, TMW anticipate, the Tuscans will be ready to launch a bid for Esposito.
