Lille President Olivier Létang confirms Fiorentina are interested in signing Jonathan Ikoné in January.
The 23-year-old is reportedly close to completing a €15m move to the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
The Tuscans have been looking for a new right winger for a long time, with Domenico Berardi on top of their transfer shopping list.
However, Sassuolo‘s economic demands have convinced Fiorentina to look elsewhere and the Tuscans are now close to securing the services of the France international.
“We have many interesting players and talks are ongoing, but we haven’t closed any deal yet,” Olivier Létang told Tuttomercatoweb.
“Let’s see what happens in the coming weeks, but I can confirm that Fiorentina are interested in Ikoné.”
