As a Fiorentina fan who has seen plenty of him, I can say with confidence that he would not thrive in the Prem. One trick pony (cutting inside) when playing on the right, style of play much more suited to the Italian game.

surely you're joking...this would indicate a 3-5-2

Fiorentina's president is leaning on Juventus to pay out the €30m in cash or they risk him going elsewhere. Frankly Juve doesn't seem prepared to take on another forward until they do some offloading so perhaps this is more a ploy to get other teams to act quickly...

There's some quality here, but he's too tempermental to bother with. There are better options in the £10-15m range who are less of a headache.

Hopefully gets a run today against the Italians so we can see if he's worth a punt.

transfermarkt seems to say it's official on 1 July, €400,000. Can't find confirmation though.

Are you the guy I've seen driving around town with the 'MAN CITY' license plates?

As you wish... He had a few decent set-piece deliveries last season but as a Fiorentina fan who watches almost every game this chart is not surprising. While he probably is the better defender of the two, Fiorentina played 3-5-2 for a large part of last year and Pasqual was deployed as a...

He performed really well with Lazio, Italy suits him. Current starting LB is their 31-year old captain who was statistically one of the poorest crossers in Europe last year. They did just pick up Marcos Alonzo from Bolton though...

I've been saying Kolarov + cash for some time now - now knowing that Fiorentina has turned down the option to buy Viviano, I think what you're proposing makes the most sense.

He MIGHT do well here, but Pellegrini has already said he wants to give Dzeko a run with the new hired guns. We do not need both of them on this team. If Gomez is leaving the CL winners for playing time, Fiorentina is an ideal destination, especially given that Rossi still needs to prove he's...

Everything has been agreed between Bayern, Fiorentina, and Gomez. The only thing holding up the completion of this deal is the sale of Jovetic. I hope we pick up Jovetic and Isco, sell Tevez to Juve, and Gomez and Kolarov go to Fiorentina.

love that his twitter account has been suspended

Fiorentina don't want him to leave, but according to his agent he wants out.

Confused as to why he would leave Florence after a very successful season and regular starting place to come back here. Can't see him playing in a CL game, but definitely would feature in the EL for the Viola.

latest comments from Fiorentina's sporting director are that he's not on the market, which is surely a ploy to increase his fee or force his agent (who is also Ljajic's agent) to stop trying to hijack the renewal of the latter by forcing through the sale of the former.

No, no, a million times no.

15-20m + Kolarov would be good business for both teams. Not sure why someone said that Fiorentina have money, they have a strict wage cap and I'm fairly certain that their biggest purchase since returning to Serie A was Gilardino for ~12m. They have always been a second-tier team in Italy and...
