Fiorentina are hoping to sign the Aston Villa defender Kosta Nedeljkovic.
They are fighting for survival in the top flight of Italian football and need to add more quality and depth to their defensive unit. The 20-year-old could prove to be an excellent long-term investment.
Initially, there were fears the move would not go through, but it seems the relegation-threatened side is now working to close the deal before the window closes, according to The Athletic. The young defender needs regular opportunities to grow, and the loan move might not be a bad idea for him. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
Fiorentina can provide him with the opportunity he needs right now.
The defender is expected to join the Italian club on loan until the end of the season. He will look to play regularly and establish himself as a key player in the Italian top flight. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Can Nedeljkovic make his mark?
Meanwhile, the Italian outfit will be hoping for an immediate impact from the young defender if they can get the deal done. They are fighting for survival in the Italian top flight, and they need as much quality as possible. A quality defender could make a difference for them and help them tighten up at the back.
The 20-year-old defender will look to establish himself as an important player for Aston Villa in future, and a successful loan spell this season also certainly help him improve. The young defender is highly rated at Aston Villa and sitting on the bench at the West Midlands club will not help him fulfil his potential. It would be ideal for him to take on a fresh challenge until the end of the season and play more often.
Meanwhile, Aston Villa should look to add more quality to the defence before the January window closes. A quality central defender could be ideal for them and help them finish in the top three.
