Fiorentina updates squad numbers and pursues Thorstvedt

Fiorentina is making significant moves in the transfer market as the club prepares for its centenary season. Striker Moise Kean has been assigned the number 9 shirt, a prestigious jersey previously worn by club legends such as Gabriel Batistuta, Alberto Gilardino, and Edin Dzeko.

In addition to squad changes, Fiorentina is actively pursuing midfielder Kristian Thorstvedt from Sassuolo. While the player has reportedly expressed interest in the move, negotiations between the two clubs remain stalled. Sassuolo is seeking a 15 million euro fee without player exchanges, whereas Fiorentina is attempting to structure a deal involving player swaps to reduce costs. Discussions have included potential involvement of Niccolò Fortini, though Sassuolo maintains a high valuation for the defender.
