After a move to Napoli broke down due to disputes over image rights, the Viola stepped up their interest, and are believed to have agreed terms with the player.

The only major stumbling block for the transfer was a disagreement over price, but Gianluca Di Marzio’s website believes a deal has been struck for €5.5m plus bonuses.

The website reports that Astori will now travel to Florence to make the move official, and will sign his contract this evening, pending a medical.
