Fiorentina look to Keita Balde

By Football Italia staff

Keita Balde Diao could be heading back to Serie A yet again, this time on loan from Monaco to Fiorentina.

According to La Repubblica, the Senegal international forward is on the Viola radar for this season.

He came up through the Lazio youth academy and was sold to Monaco for €30m in 2017.

The 24-year-old was on loan at Inter last term, at a cost of €5m, but the Nerazzurri did not take up their option to buy.

Keita could well return to Serie A again for Fiorentina at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in a similar loan with option deal.

His versatility is the main attraction, as he can play as a support striker, wide left or right, but even if needed as a False Nine.
