Arturo Lupoli
Fiorentina have revealed they have received an offer from Norwich City for Arturo Lupoli.
The young Italian, who failed to make the grade at Arsenal, has been the subject of a concrete bid from The Canaries although Fiorentina would prefer a loan deal.
The official statement on the Viola's website stressed that the problems could be resolved in the coming days in order for the Italian to make his way to East Anglia.
After making only one Premier League appearance for The Gunners, the 21-year-old had more playing time on loan at Derby County before returning to his homeland.
He spent last term with Treviso on a temporary basis, but failed to show his best form, probably a little surprisingly as he had served notice of his promise during some cup outings for Arsene Wenger's side.
However, Siena and Udinese were both linked with his signature after the end of the Italian season.
