Super Eagles defender, Ola Aina who is on loan from Chelsea at Torino is attracting interest from Italian side Fiorentina, following a fine start to life in Turin.
The Chelsea-academy graduate was loaned out by the Blues at the beginning of the season for the second successive time to enhance his development.
Aina, who has flourished at right and left wing-back in Walter Mazzarri’s favoured 3-5-2 formation has been identified as a summer transfer target by Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Montella.
Meanwhile, the deal is said to be a difficult one for Fiorentina, as Torino hold a purchase option of €10m on Aina’s loan deal – which could be triggered at the end of the campaign.
The former captain of the England’s U19 squad has scored once and provided two assists in 26 league matches for Torino this season.
Torino, who face AC Milan in the league on Sunday are currently seventh in the Serie A, two points behind Roma who have 55 points.
