As the silly summer season treats us every year, everything is not always as it seems. In the case of Riqui Puig and his rumored exit to Serie A, we’ve been told by the president of Fiorentina himself that Puig was never on their list.
“Riqui Puig does not interest us, never has been in our list. We wanted to sign Florian Grillitsch but then we had some problems.”
This comes on the back of reporting via Sport merely 24 hours ago that detailed Barca’s reported “advanced negotiations” with Barca for Puig.
