Fiorentina winger Sottil ready for new loan at Lecce | OneFootball

Following his Milan experience, Fiorentina are set to loan Riccardo Sottil out to Lecce until the end of the season.

The attacking winger has struggled for playing time in Florence and spent the last six months on loan at San Siro, where he also failed to make much of an impact.

An agreement has now been reached to send him out to Lecce at the Stadio Via del Mare.

It is going to be a dry loan, so without an option to make it permanent, at a cost of €500,000.

The documents are being exchanged today so he can travel for his medical tests tomorrow.

It means he will be reunited with former Milan teammate Francesco Camarda, who has joined Lecce on loan for this term too.

Sottil turned 26 in June and spent time in the Genoa and Torino youth academies before moving to Fiorentina in 2016.

He had loans at Pescara, Cagliari and Milan, amassing 129 Serie A appearances with eight goals and 10 assists.
