Fiorentina continues to monitor the market in search of opportunities to strengthen the squad available to Fabio Grosso. In recent hours, a name of international scope, young and Italian, has emerged. The Viola will try, aware that the negotiations will be more complex than expected. Paratici and Goretti will have to do everything to convince the club of the player. Among the profiles followed by the Viola management in recent weeks is also that of Matteo Ruggeri, a 2002-born winger who grew up at Atalanta and had a good season in Spain with Atletico Madrid. According to Sky Sport, the club has conducted an exploratory survey to understand the margins of a potential operation. A useful contact, especially to evaluate the player's situation and the intentions of the Spanish society in view of the next season. At the moment, however, there do not seem to be the conditions to start a real negotiation. Atletico Madrid considers Ruggeri an important element for the present and future of the team and would not intend to part with him during this transfer window. For this reason, the Fiorentina survey has not had further developments. In recent days, the player's agent, Manuel Montipò, had spoken precisely about the future of his client: It is clear that there is the market and anything can happen, because the requests are not lacking. They have both in Italy and abroad, but today there is nothing concrete. Ruggeri has played 47 games, providing 7 assists between league, Champions League, Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup, and is becoming a hot name for the flank for many Serie A teams. There is also Roma, which wants to provide Gasperini with more material on the lateral lanes, as Wesley is not enough. His profile pleases Trigoria and especially Gasperini, who has already coached him at Atalanta. According to Tuttosport, Juventus has also set its sights on Matteo Ruggeri. The 2002-born player represents a young but international profile, whose athletic qualities and offensive propensity would fit perfectly with Spalletti's requests. His name has been identified as the number one candidate if it were necessary to replace Cambiaso. Contract until 2030 and salary of around 2.3 million per season, top figures that could hinder many clubs (Fiorentina first). Atletico Madrid, however, has no intention of selling its winger and, with the investment made last summer, is shooting high on the valuation of the player's card: at least 25 million euros are needed to convince the Colchoneros to sit down at the negotiating table. A decidedly important economic request.
