Fiorentina’s transfer blitz pressures Aquilani, Sassuolo loses players

Fiorentina’s transfer window has entered high gear, as the club prepares two further signings and a potential swap involving Fortini, intensifying pressure on Sassuolo manager Aquilani ahead of the season start. The report comes from Stampa A− A+.

Pinamonti and Thorstvedt have decided to leave Sassuolo, creating a vacancy in the squad. Their departures were confirmed in the same source.

The exits put Aquilani in crisis only a few days before the league campaign begins. The timing leaves the coach scrambling for replacements.

Fiorentina is described as "scatenatissima" and wants to include either Fortini or Fabbian in a double‑player operation. The club’s ambition is to strengthen its roster quickly.

Sassuolo now faces the task of rebuilding its lineup without the two departing players. The club must act before the opening fixtures.

Fiorentina is expected to finalise the deals imminently, while Aquilani will need to source alternatives to stabilise his side. Both clubs are poised for rapid activity in the coming days.
