Fiorentina will use the final days of the transfer window to bring in a defender immediately for Palladino.
Fiorentina cannot afford a repeat of their performance against Parma. The complete absence of defenders due to substitutions and expulsions, with Pongracic being sent off, forced Palladino to utilise Amrabat as a central defender.
“This is a scenario we must avoid in upcoming matches,” said a source close to the club.
The club’s urgent need for reinforcement in defence is evident, given the critical situation they found themselves in during the Parma match.
Efforts are now being ramped up to secure a suitable defender to ensure such a predicament does not recur in the future.
“We are actively looking to strengthen our defensive line-up before the transfer window closes,” a Fiorentina official revealed on the club’s website.
The next few days will be crucial for Fiorentina as they strive to bolster their squad and prepare for what lies ahead in the season.
