La Viola continues to try for the Argentine striker born in 2001 (who could be naturalized Italian). River Plate’s request is the obstacle: 20 million. Benfica (former Rui Costa’s) are also on him, but could turn to Pedro del Flamengo, ex Fiorentina. The Nzola track also remains alive, with Carbal and Jovic who could leave

Fiorentina are pushing for Lucas Beltran. Argentine striker, born in 2001, twenty-two goals in seventy-seven games with River, the club where he grew up and which has raised the price bar to 20 millions. Viola doesn’t give up and is convinced they can get to the player, getting close to the amount requested by the Argentines. At the moment it is precisely the figure that is the greatest obstacle, but the dialogue continues. Beltran could also be a naturalized Italian and therefore eligible for a call by Mancini in the future, in a path similar to that of Retegui.

Benfica and the former Viola

But there is also another team on Beltran, and it is the Benfica of the former Fiorentina Manuel Rui Costa, now president of the company. However, the competition from the Portuguese could slow down after the club has targeted other profiles, above all that of Pedro del Flamengo who – look at it – is an ex (also) from Fiorentina.

Long live the Nzola track too. Carbal-Jovic leaving?

But the attack market isn’t just tied to this option. Indeed, Arthur Cabral and Luka Jovic have several requests and could say hello. While the Nzola track, even more so in the event of farewells, remains alive: Fiorentina and Spezia should meet on the morning of Monday 7 August to talk about the player.
