Parma midfielder Jose Mauri can “absolutely confirm” interest from Fiorentina, said his agent.

Still only 19, he was among the most impressive players for the Ducali during this unfortunate season, scoring the winner against Juventus.

“I can absolutely confirm Fiorentina are interested,” representative Dino Zampacorta told FirenzeViola.

“The Viola have been tracking the player for a very long time and there has been numerous contact with them even in the past.

“I can absolutely confirm Fiorentina are interested,” representative Dino Zampacorta told FirenzeViola.

“The Viola have been tracking the player for a very long time and there has been numerous contact with them even in the past.

“However, Fiorentina are not the only side asking for information on Mauri, as there’s a lot of competition. Florence would without doubt be a welcome and suitable option.

“Mauri has great potential and could do very well indeed with the Fiorentina jersey. However, we still need to wait a few days and see what happens at Parma.

“We do not intend to show a lack of respect to the Ducali, so with Mauri we’ll decide only when the situation is clear.”

Parma are on the verge of bankruptcy, so Mauri would leave as a free agent if the club goes under.

The Ducali must find a new buyer prepared to pay the €22.6m sporting debt by June 25 to register for the Serie B season.
