Vincenzo Montella’s Fiorentina are hoping to add Brazilian midfielder Allan to their ranks alongside Udinese team mate Simon Scuffet, in an audacious double Summer raid.
Goalkeeper Scuffet has already been targeted by the Viola to replace the outbound Neto who looks set to join Juventus, but now the Fiorentina hierarchy are also setting their sights on the much-admired Allan.
According to La Nazione, Montella wants the former Vasco de Gama player to bolster his midfield after having seen the 24-year-old perform admirably for the Zebrette.
However, tempting Allan to Florence will not be easy as the story also suggests that Milan-based giants Inter have the Brazilian on Roberto Mancini’s wish-list and may find it difficult to convince the player to move to the Stadio Artemio Franchi with the Nerazzurri showing an interest.
Allan has been in Udine since 2012 and has already amassed over 100 league appearances for the club.
