Pedro set for Brazil return

Flamengo are set to sign Fiorentina striker Pedro, according to reports in Italy.

The Brazilian striker landed in Italy only in September, signing for the Viola from Fluiminense for €10m.

However the 22-year-old hardly played for the club, making just six appearances, including two for the Viola’s primavera side.

La Gazzetta dello Sport journalist Nicolo Schira states that a deal has been agreed that would see Pedro go on loan with an option to buy for €13m.

Whilst Sport Mediaset’s transfer expert Niccolo Ceccarini insists that the Brazilian Serie A side have agreed a deal for a €2m loan with option to buy for €14m that becomes obligatory under specific conditions.

Pedro failed to get on the score sheet for Fiorentina during his brief stay at the club.
