Fiorentina President Mario Cognini confirmed Mario Gomez “is negotiating with Besiktas, but they are not the only club.”

The German striker is no longer part of their plans under new Coach Paulo Sousa and the International Champions Cup game against Benfica last night was probably his last for the Viola.

“The new strategy for Fiorentina is tied to youth, as confirmed by the contract renewals of Khouma Babacar and Federico Bernardeschi,” Cognini told Radio Blu.

“The new strategy for Fiorentina is tied to youth, as confirmed by the contract renewals of Khouma Babacar and Federico Bernardeschi,” Cognini told Radio Blu.

“Evidently we are changing our tactical system too, because Fiorentina and their Coach go forward hand in hand.

“Gomez is negotiating with Besiktas, but they are not the only club. His entourage is taking care of it.”

Cognini was asked about the on-going Mohamed Salah saga, as Roma seem ready to complete a transfer for the Egyptian.

“Our lawyers and those of Chelsea are dealing with it. I cannot say more.”
