Salvatore Lodi stated that they were convinced Antonio Vergara would leave Napoli because he had a lot of interest from the market, adding that they thought Goretti would take him to Fiorentina. Lodi described Vergara as a player in the style of Cassano and was impressed by his performance against Fiorentina.

Tuttomercato has reported that Fiorentina is interested in acquiring Antonio Vergara, a 22-year-old Italian midfielder, on a permanent basis. Roberto Goretti, who is the technical director of Fiorentina, is reportedly interested in Vergara due to his connections to Reggio Emilia, where Vergara was previously on loan. In recent weeks, both Parma and Fiorentina have been gathering information with the aim of securing a permanent transfer for Vergara. This interest is attributed to Goretti's familiarity with Vergara's skills, which he observed during his time at Reggio Emilia. Vergara, known for his versatility in midfield, renewed his contract in 2024 and is under contract until June 30, 2027. He is reportedly keen to play in Serie A. Transfermarkt has valued the player at €2.20 million.
