Fiorentina have set sights on Aster Vranckx, although the deal has slowed down significantly after seeming on the verge of going through before the weekend. The Viola have lodged an offer to sign him outright from Wolfsburg, Corriere dello Sport informs.
The Bundesliga outfit appeared keen on accepting a €7M bid but changed their mind afterward and are asking for more money. The parties are negotiating. There’s optimism the deal will happen anyway despite the hurdles. The commissions to his agent William D’Avila and his collaborators are also being discussed.
Fiorentina can lean on the fact that Vranckx gladly and quickly accepted their technical project. His contract is up in 2025, and he doesn’t want to extend it, which puts pressure on Wolfsburg.
The youngster headed back to Germany after an underwhelming loan spell at Milan. He failed to crack the rotation. The Rossoneri passed on their €12M option to buy. The Viola are looking for midfielders due to the possible departure of Sofyan Amrabat. Since there have been no sizeable offers, he could go out on loan after prolonging his deal.
Our Take on Fiorentina and Vranckx
He played very little last season, where he faced strong competition, but the Gigliati are a sound destination for talents, especially should they qualify for the group stage of the Conference League.
