After Dusan Vlahović last year, Fiorentina could be tempted to sell another big name in January and reap a large transfer market profit.

According to The Athletic, Leicester City are keen on signing attacker Nicolas Gonzalez before the end of this month’s transfer window.

Brendan Rodger’s men have struggled to find the back of the net this season, scoring only 26 goals through 18 Premier League matches. The former Celtic boss is desperate to acquire fresh attacking reinforcements and they’ve very interested in acquiring the 24 year-old.

La Viola shelled out €23 million plus €4 million when they purchased Gonzalez from Stuttgart in the summer of 2021—meaning the Foxes would have to present an expensive offer to convince the Tuscans to sell.
