Andrea Della Valle says Adem Ljajic is likely to leave Fiorentina soon

Adem Ljajic: Likely to leave Fiorentina soon

The Serbian's contract runs out at the end of the season and, with negotiations between the club and the player stalling, it is reported that the Viola want to sell him in this transfer window to avoid losing him on a Bosman.

Speaking before his side beat Grasshopper Zurich 2-1 on Thursday night, Della Valle said: "Ljajic? I cannot give any answers right now, but there are several different options available.

"Ljajic could still stay at Fiorentina, though there's not much chance of that happening."

Della Valle also confirmed the club have signed Uruguayan midfielder Matias Vecino Falero from Nacional.
