Ex-Milan striker Alexandre Pato is being closely monitored by Fiorentina, but winger Josip Ilicic must first be sold.

The Slovenian is one of the names rumoured to be on la Viola's for sale list, and Bayer Leverkusen have reportedly already expressed some interest in him.

According to La Repubblica, should the club from Florence be able to sell Ilicic, the resources from the transfer would be reinvested on the Brazilian Pato.

The former Selecao forward is currently on loan at Sao Paulo, from parent club Corinthians.

Alternatives include Juventus' Sebastian Giovinco, Milan's Giampaolo Pazzini and Udinese's Luis Muriel, though the latter is unlikely to be sold by the Zebrette in January.
