Fiorentina monitoring Schalke fullback
The 28-year-old German international has been a regular at the Bundesliga giants since joining from Hamburg in 2013, initially on loan, then permanently.
Tuttomercatoweb report that the Viola are preparing for the possible departure of first-choice left-back Alonso, who has many admirers in the English Premier League.
Fiorentina have set their gaze on Aogo, who is also adept at playing at the base of midfield and on the left-wing, and is seen by new boss Paulo Sousa as the perfect addition.
The Viola however, have baulked at Schalke’s €7 million asking price for Aogo, and will try to negotiate a lower fee with the German outfit in the coming weeks.
Aogo made 32 appearances for Schalke last season, netting a single goal.
