Former CSKA defender Jaka Bijol, who currently plays for Leeds United, is a potential transfer target for Fiorentina. It is reported that the Italian club considers the 26-year-old Slovenian international its main target due to pessimism about a deal for Tottenham's Radu Dragusin.
Fiorentina's management considers Bijol's previous experience in Serie A with Udinese a major advantage. The player's contract with Leeds United is valid until the summer of 2027, and according to the portal Transfermarkt, his value is estimated to be €18 million. The centre-back has 69 caps and has scored one goal for Slovenia. In the 2025/2026 Premier League season, Bijol has made 12 appearances, scored one goal, and provided one assist.
