Commisso calls Giuntoli: he wants the Juventus striker at all costs but is not willing to spend even a single euro on him.
It won’t be easy for the new Fiorentina coach Raffaele Palladino collect the legacy of Vincenzo Italiano. The Viola coach continues to be heavily criticized in our country for some tactical choices that led him to disastrously lose some key matches this season, including two consecutive Conference League finals.
But the point is that in a European competition final you must first get there, and this hasn’t happened to the Viola for many decades. Therefore, although it is legitimate to criticize Italiano and his idea of the game, belittling its value and merits is not as has happened all too often this year.
We must in no way forget the situation the Viola found themselves in before his arrival, with a team that had been in existence for many years all he did was play very anonymous championships, in some seasons even risking relegation.
Of course, the merits of this rebirth must be shared between Italiano and president Rocco Commisso, who from season to season is proving to the Viola that he is not a flash in the pan, and that he really has the intention to gradually bring the club back to the top of world football.
The construction of Viola Park
The most brilliant demonstration of this it is perhaps the sports center completed last year. Viola Park, which cost the Fiorentina owner a lot, is in fact one of the most cutting-edge sports centers that hesitate, and testifies to how great the club’s ambition is.
And also the choice of a name like Palladino to replace Italiano, it seems like yet another very intelligent move by a management that is aiming to grow more and more year after year. For this reason, in the next season it is essential not to make missteps and to continue along the path of sporting growth. However, we will need to improve the team on the market, a challenge that is anything but simple, as for the moment the club cannot spend too much money on a player.
Commisso calls Giuntoli: he wants a striker on loan
The most obvious gaps are currently in the attack department, which has no longer found a true leader since Vlahovic’s departure. Fiorentina had been interested in Retegui this week, but the negotiation did not take off as the price requested by Genoa is judged too high.
This is why Commisso would have contacted Juventus sporting director Giuntoli, to try to bring a young talent to Florence on loan. For Kean in fact it was a very difficult season, and it is obvious that his future is far from Juventus. The Viola have made a request for his loanbut it remains to be seen whether the Old Lady really wants to deprive herself of the footballer without collecting anything.
