The Viola have a strong rapport with their Tuscan rivals, negotiating several deals together over the years.

As for the Rossoneri, Sky writes how incoming chief Ralf Rangnick has long kept tabs on Ricci, having looked at him as a possible signing for RB Leipzig.

The Italy Under-19 international has enjoyed a breakout season, playing 22 times for Empoli in Serie B and the Coppa Italia.
