Fiorentina Out Of The Running For Ezequiel Munoz - Agent
The future of the Xeneizes starlet is up in the air after his agent revealed that he is not set for the Viola and that Real Madrid have an option to buy the player...
Fiorentina sporting director Pantaleo Corvino recently revealed that the club were concluding a deal to take Boca Juniors defender Ezequiel Munoz to the Artemio Franchi in January.
However, the player's agent has denied all knowledge of the transfer. In addition, he revealed that Real Madrid had already started negotiations with los Xeneizes for their young centre-back, who has been likened to Roberto Ayala.
"Did something happen when Corvino travelled to South America? I've no idea - the only thing I can say is that there was no meeting either with Boca or with the player," Marcelo Simonian said to Tuttomercatoweb.
"If by that do I mean that Fiorentina have never followed my client? No, I mean that Fiorentina have followed the player in the past but not recently.
"Are Real Madrid behind them? Yes, Real Madrid have an option [to buy Munoz]."
If los Blancos follow up their option on Munoz, it would give them a bargaining chip in their negotiations for Viola winger Juan Manuel Vargas. The Peruvian has recently been linked with a move to Madrid.
