Former Juventus and Tottenham striker Fernando Llorente is reportedly ready to join Fiorentina, as Giovanni Simeone is in Verona talks.
The Viola are revamping their squad with Kevin-Prince Boateng and Pol Lirola from Sassuolo, plus advanced talks with Inter to take Radja Nainggolan on loan.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, free agent Llorente has given the all-clear to join Fiorentina on a one-year contract with option for a second season.
He has Serie A experience with Juventus and has just been released at the end of his Spurs contract.

However, it all depends on moving Simeone on and so far he is rejecting every proposal.
There is hope from Hellas Verona, as HellasNews claim his agent is in regular talks with the newly-promoted club with the promise of making him their star striker.
It would be a reunion with ex-Genoa Coach Ivan Juric, with whom Simeone had the most effective period of his Serie A career.
