Fiorentina are keen on landing Udinese goalkeeper Simone Scuffet in the summer with current number one Neto expected to leave the Viola for Juventus in the off-season.

The 18-year-old broke into the Zebrette side in February 2014, making his debut against Bologna but has since been displaced by Orestis Karnezis between the sticks after falling out of favour under Andrea Stramaccioni.

According to La Nazione, the Viola see Scuffet as the ideal replacement for Neto and will look to take the keeper on-loan next season, along with a €7 million option to make the transfer permanent in 2016.

The youngster has made 16 appearances for the Zebrette in his short career and was named number one on the list of best goalkeepers in the Outside of the Boot’s 100 best young players to watch in 2015.
