Fiorentina targets Sassuolo midfielder Kristian Thorstvedt

Fiorentina is making a last-minute attempt to sign Sassuolo midfielder Kristian Thorstvedt before the summer transfer window closes. The Norwegian midfielder is a key target for Fiorentina coach Fabio Grosso, who previously worked with him at Sassuolo.

While Fiorentina management, led by Fabio Paratici, is reportedly preparing a final push to secure the player, Sassuolo has maintained a difficult negotiating position. The club has been hesitant to part with Thorstvedt so close to the deadline, as finding a replacement would be nearly impossible at this stage.

Thorstvedt's future has been a subject of speculation throughout the summer following his decision not to extend his current contract. Despite interest from other clubs, including Besiktas, the potential move to Florence remains a developing situation as the transfer deadline approaches.
