Fiorentina are on the hunt for new offensive weapons and could turn to a familiar market, the Argentinian one, to find their man, as they are pursuing Pedro de la Vega. He’s a pet player of one of their director, former defender Nicolas Burdisso, Tuttomercatoweb informs.
The attacker has been close to moving to Serie A a couple of times in the past. Genoa and Inter tried to partner up to sign him when he was very young. Instead, Parma and Atalanta tried more recently. No team has managed to convince Lanus so far.
De la Vega might be ready to travel across the pond, and Fiorentina will compete especially with Roberto De Zerbi’s Brighton for his services. On the other hand, it won’t be easy to sway his team, which might prefer waiting until he showcases his skill in the Olympics next summer before selling.
The 22-year-old can play in multiple offensive positions. He has an Italian passport. He has tallied 6 goals and 7 assists in 40 matches in all competitions this year. The pacey forward has been a stable of Argentina’s youth teams in recent years and is poised for a big role in Paris in 2024.
Our Take on Fiorentina and De La Vega
They have a lot of options on the wings but just one elite one, Nicolas Gonzalez. The ideal way to go would be to sell at least a couple and reinvest in a proven contributor.
