Fiorentina shows interest in Matheus Mascarenhas of Fluminense

Fiorentina is interested in acquiring Fluminense defender, Matheus Mascarenhas. There have been initial contacts in order to understand how the Italian club could acquire the Brazilian fullback whose contract expires in six months. Fiorentina hopes to evaluate the price which will be demanded by Fluminense in order to see if they can promptly close a potential deal. Milan had previously shown interest in the player when he put forth impressive performances at the Al-Kass cup in 2013. If the player manages to obtain a European passport, it could improve the chances of a future transfer.
