Fiorentina are reportedly considering making a move for former AC Milan striker Alexandre Pato.
The Brazil international now plays in his home country, on loan at Sao Paulo on loan from Corinthians.
Vincenzo Montella’s side are strongly thinking about exploring a loan move for the forward, according to QS.
It is reported that the Viola are going to look to replicate the sort of temporary move that saw David Beckham move on loan to the Rossoneri in 2009 and 2010.
Fiorentina have been plagued by injury problems already this season, with two first choice strikers in Mario Gomez and Giuseppe Rossi being out of action for large swathes of time.
The 25-year-old scored over 50 Serie A goals in his five-year stay with Milan.
