Giuseppe Rossi has received his first call-up to the Fiorentina squad for tomorrow’s game with Siena.
The Italian international joined the club in January, but is still recovering from a devastating knee injury.
Rossi snapped the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in October 2011, then damaged the same ligament again during a training session on the eve of his comeback in April 2012.

Alberto Aquilani, Momo Sissoko and Michele Camporese are out injured, while Adem Ljajic and Nenad Tomovic are suspended.
