The newspaper adds a second shot-stopper could arrive in the form of Costil, who helped Bordeaux finish sixth in Ligue 1 over the past season.
The 30-year-old had been linked with Milan prior to his switch to Les Girondins last summer and was part of the France squad who finished runners-up at Euro 2016.
Fiorentina are in need of reinforcemens between the sticks after Marco Sportiello returned to Atalanta.
