Fiorentina want Cutrone

Fiorentina are interested in signing Patrick Cutrone from Wolverhampton Wanderers, according to reports in Italy.

Cutrone arrived at Wolves from AC Milan in the summer for €18 million and signed a four-year contract, but he hasn’t been able to impose himself on manager Nuno Espirito Santo’s plans. The striker is well behind Raul Jimenez and Diogo Jota in the pecking order, and as Corriere dello Sport claim, Fiorentina will try to tempt him with the prospect of returning to Italy. Wolves are doing very well at the moment, sitting in seventh place in the Premier League and with a place in the knockout stages of the Europa League booked, and they have no reason to change they way they function. Cutrone’s contribution has been marginal – three goals from 24 appearances in all competitions.

The Serie A side are keen on an initial loan deal in January with an option to buy at the end of the season for €15 million.
