Fiorentina is searching for a replacement for the right flank due to the expected departure of Dodô, which will create a vacancy. The club is monitoring Rafik Belghali, a 24-year-old from Hellas Verona. Belghali, who is an Algerian player and also holds Belgian citizenship, made 29 appearances and scored two goals in the most recent season. His contract expires in 2029. Verona's relegation to Serie B could make a sale easier. It is said that Fiorentina is very interested. Belghali has 15 caps and one goal for Algeria and has also been linked with other clubs, including Torino, Inter, and Roma. His current market value on Transfermarkt is €7.00m. It was reported that AS Roma submitted an offer of approximately €10 million in April 2026. Reports from December 2025 suggested that Hellas Verona valued him at up to €15 million. Hellas Verona signed Belghali from Mechelen in August 2025 for a fee that was reported to be €2 million.
