Speculation is mounting in Italy that Brazil coach Carlos Dunga will be offered the job at Serie A side Fiorentina if Cesare Prandelli’s reign at the Franchi comes to an end in the summer.

According to La Repubblica newspaper, Dunga is on a short-list of replacements which also includes Cagliari coach Massimiliano Allegri, Sampdoria boss Luigi Del Neri and former Italy boss Roberto Donadoni.

Dunga has already announced he will quit the Selecao after this summer’s World Cup finals in South Africa.

Dunga is no stranger to the Viola colours, having plied his trade at the Franchi from 1988 to 1992.

Fiorentina are widely expected to sever their ties with Prandelli in the summer after a disappointing season.

The Tuscans crashed out of the Champions League at the hands of Bayern Munich this week and sit in an anonymous mid-table position in Serie A, 11 points adrift of the top four.
