FLORENCE – Fiorentina unleashed on the transfer market. The Viola club has confirmed Federico Chiesa and has already given coach Vincenzo Montella certain reliance players like Pulgar, Boateng, Lirola and Badelj. Fiorentina failed to convince Mario Balotelli, who preferred to start from Brescia, but could soon snatch Frank Ribery's yes.
The 36-year-old Frenchman is released after a very long match in Bayern Munich, which lasted twelve years. Despite his age, Ribery is still an important player as he played 36 games in his last German season, scoring 7 goals and numerous assists.
At first, his landing in Florence seemed impossible due to his willingness to return to play in Marseille in France, but after the black smoke between his agent and the French club, all destinations return as possible.
At the moment, Ribery has overshadowed the proposals coming from the United States, China and Arab countries because it would prefer to stay and play in Europe. The former Bayern Munich footballer has received proposals from Spartak Moscow and Dinamo Kiev but would prefer to continue playing in one of the most important European leagues. For this reason it could accept the very long courtship of Fiorentina.
For the viola, a huge problem is his engagement. During the last contract with Bayern Munich, Ribery earned more than eight million euros per season plus bonuses. Now that he is released, he could also accept a lower salary but he certainly has no intention of going down too much, because in China, the United States and Qatar they would satisfy his economic demands without any problem.
Ribery would be willing to lower his salary, but in a light and not radical way, to remain a protagonist in European football. The problem lies in the fact that the viola consider an important figure even half of the last salary perceived by Ribery. The deal is not close but for the first time since the transfer market began, Ribery is seriously considering the purple offer.
