Another option, cited by Sky Sport Italia, points to Borja Valero making a return to the Stadio Franchi, with both going on loan and option to buy.

Inter are targeting Fiorentina left-wing-back Cristiano Biraghi, it’s reported, but the asking price is at least €18-20m.

According to FCInterNews.it, the 26-year-old Italy international has been identified by Antonio Conte and club directors as their ideal reinforcement for the left flank.

He has proved that he can play both in a four-man defence and wide in a 3-5-2 formation, a role that so far Conte has found it difficult to fill, claiming Ivan Perisic doesn’t suit it.

Fiorentina and Italy left-back Cristiano Biraghi is reportedly on Roma’s radar for next season.

According to La Nazione, Roma have identified Biraghi as the ideal heir to Aleksandar Kolarov, who turns 34 later this year.

The 26-year-old has missed just one game all season for Fiorentina and gone on to establish himself as Italy’s first-choice left-back.

The Giallorossi, for their part, have conceded the most goals out of Serie A’s top 10 sides (45) and shipped seven away to Fiorentina in the Coppa Italia.

Cristiano Biraghi revealed playing Italy’s Euro 2020 qualifier against Finland was fraught with emotions. “We stayed at the same hotel where we lost Davide Astori.”

The Azzurri opened their qualifying campaign with a 2-0 victory at the Dacia Arena in Udine last night.

“The more time goes on, we understand what the Coach wants and work better together, so it’s just a matter of time,” Fiorentina full-back Biraghi told Rai Sport.

Cristiano Biraghi has praised Roberto Mancini’s impact as Italy CT. “He’s done well to adapt to all the characteristics of the players and exploit them.”

“It was important for the team, which is what counts,” the 26-year-old said at a Press conference.
