Fiorentina sporting director Pantaleo Corvino has told the press that the club is "on track" to sign Liverpool left-back Emiliano Insua. Earlier on Friday, it was reported the contract is on the verge of being finalised.
"Insua? There are plenty of negotiations as we continue to achieve our objectives. To definitely close [the deal] takes the signatures of three parties. We are on track," Corvino told mediaset.
"[Sampdoria midfielder Stafano] Guberti or another external arrival? For us it's already a sacrifice to keep the same squad we had last season in addition to those that have already arrived.
"It's also true that there are still 40 days left in the market and Fiorentina will pay attention to any opportunities that arise."
Meanwhile, Corvino also explained the decision to appoint Sinisa Mihajlovic as tactician following the departure of Cesare Prandelli to lead the Italian national team.
"Mihajlovic was a choice based on the quality of his work. Our group after five years [with Prandelli] needed new motivation and Maihajlovic could bring his natural experience as a winner," he concluded.
