The attacking midfielder has appeared twice in Serie A for the Viola this term but has struggled to carve out a space in the line-up at the Artemio Franchi.
Saponara moved to Fiorentina from Empoli in January 2017 but has since spent time on loan at Sampdoria, Genoa and Lecce.
He returned from Genoa in August 2020 and his current contract with the Viola expires in June 2022.
The attacking midfielder has vast experience from Serie A, despite having only played 34 games with Fiorentina.
Saponara has 146 appearances in Serie A, including eight games with Milan.
