According to Tuttomercato, Sassuolo are pursuing Fiorentina's Niccolò Fortini for the right flank. The deal could be part of discussions with Fiorentina regarding Kristian Thorstvedt.

According to Tuttomercato, Sassuolo has been monitoring Niccolò Fortini’s situation at Fiorentina for some time. Fiorentina's position is that Fortini can only leave on a permanent transfer, with the club not open to a loan deal at the moment. The club does not intend to lower its demands and, in the absence of an adequate offer, is willing to keep Fortini until his contract expires in June 2027. On his Instagram profile, Fortini has deleted all photos showing him in a Fiorentina shirt and has removed the text from his biography that identified him as a Fiorentina player.

Tuttomercato reports that Sassuolo has expressed interest in Fiorentina's Niccolò Fortini, whose contract is valid until June 30, 2027. According to the publication's editorial team, the neroverde club joins Torino in showing interest in the full-back, who Roma has also followed in the past. Fiorentina's valuation for the player is more than 10 million euros, and for now, these are inquiries rather than concrete negotiations.
