According to Sky Sport Italia, a Viola deal for Chiriches is due to be finalised tomorrow or at the latest Tuesday.

It is believed to be a loan for €1m with option to buy for a further €5m.

Galatasaray are also tracking the 25-year-old, but Chiriches would prefer Serie A to the Turkish Super Lig.

Galatasaray are also tracking the 25-year-old, but Chiriches would prefer Serie A to the Turkish Super Lig.

He joined Spurs from Steaua Bucharest in 2013 for €9.5m, but has slipped down the pecking order.

Last season he managed just 19 appearances in all competition, scoring one goal and receiving one red card.

Fiorentina need a replacement for Stefan Savic, who moved to Atletico Madrid for Mario Suarez.

They also have to assuage nervous fans after abandoning the Sergej Milinkovic-Savic transfer just as he was about to sign the contract.
