CalcioMercato report that Fiorentina are the latest club to consider a move to sign on-loan Tottenham goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini. Gollini is unlikely to remain at Spurs, and Lazio have been strongly linked with the Italian.
Gollini, 26, joined Tottenham last summer on a loan-to-buy deal with a £13million clause set to be activated if the Italy international played 20 times for Spurs. He has only managed 10, and looks unlikely to play more.
Goal report that Lazio – managed by ex-Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri – have actually held talks with Gollini’s representatives over a possible move. It is believed Lazio are confident they can sign Gollini from Atalanta for £9m.
Now, the latest report from CM states that Fiorentina are interested in raiding Atalanta for the on-loan Tottenham man. It could appeal to Gollini, who came through the academy at La Viola before Manchester United.

Ultimately, Tottenham do not want to keep him despite having the option of a second season on loan at Spurs. Meanwhile, Atalanta are keen to get rid. He will have the choice of Lazio, Fiorentina or potential other Italian sides.
Fiorentina do have Bartlomiej Dragowski in goal, but he has contract until 2023 and his future is in doubt. At Lazio, they are about to lose both Pepe Reina and Thomas Strakosha – who are out of contract in June.
