While Lille forward Jonathan Ikone has arrived for his medical, Fiorentina are also linked with a free transfer for Flamengo right-back Joao Lucas.
Ikone flew in this morning and posed with supporters as he went in for the first part of his medical today.
The transfer from LOSC is believed to be worth €14m plus €1m in bonuses and a 15 per cent cut of any future sale.
Now Tuttomercatoweb and Urubu Interativo claim that another January reinforcement is on the way for Vincenzo Italiano’s side.
That would be right-back Joao Lucas, who is negotiating a contract termination by mutual consent with Flamengo after his loan spell at Cuiaba.
The 23-year-old made 36 competitive appearances this season, providing two assists.
