Fiorentina want Napoli's Gabbiadini if Rossi or Babacar leave
Fiorentina are looking to land fringe striker Manolo Gabbiadini.
According to Tuscan paper La Nazione, Napoli's January acquisition could be approached if either Khouma Babacar or Giuseppe Rossi leave during the winter.
Gabbiadini's agent, Silvio Pagliari, was in Florence yesterday, as his player is high on top of Fiorentina's wish list.
The 24-year-old has really shined at Sampdoria in the first half of last season, netting 7 goals and providing 4 assists in Serie A action as Sinisa Mihajlovic's men made a charge for a place in Europe.
He added 8 more as a Napoli player last season, but has struggled to earn a starting berth with the Partenopei, owing to Coach Maurizio Sarri's preference for two midfielders (Jose Callejon and Lorenzo Insigne) to partner Gonzalo Higuain, not to mention the Argentin's stellar form.
