Brescia star keen on Fiorentina move

The 28-year-old is expected to leave Brescia this summer, following the club’s relegation from the Serie A.

“Many things went wrong this season at Brescia, otherwise we wouldn’t have gone down,” Diamanti told Firenzeviola.it. “We’re a good squad and it’s truly a shame to end this way.

“I come from Prato, so returning to that area and playing in Florence would be fantastic. In the past there was never anything concrete, but I hope that something can come of it.

“Fiorentina are a great side and Valon Behrami is a good friend. I was the one who advised him to make the move from West Ham to Florence. I also confessed that I’d like to play alongside him for Fiorentina.”
