Josip Ilicic is set to put to bed any speculation linking him with a move away from Fiorentina by renewing his contract, despite interest from Livepool, Tottenham and Leicester.
The 28-year-old midfielder was top of major European clubs' shortlists during the summer, with English champions Leicester in particular hopeful of forcing through a deal.
However, the Slovenia international decided to stay put in Tuscany and has become a crucial part of Fiorentina's midfield.
Ilicic has made nine appearances so far this campaign, but is yet to register a goal.
The Slovenian rose to prominence during last season, netting 15 times in 41 appearances for the Italian side as they went on to finish fifth in Serie A.
