In a press conference according to Football Italia, Commisso said: 'If Chiesa wants, then he can leave, but only for the figure that we set.


'It's a different matter for Gaetano Castrovilli, as he told me that he wants to remain in Florence. 

'If Chiesa does go, then Castrovilli can have the Number 10 jersey.'

 The comments comes after the player himself said he needs time to become a 'complete player' before he can think about moving to a bigger club.

'There are no negotiations, there is Fiorentina,' he told Corriere dello Sport.  

'I focus on working every day, achieving immediate objectives, first and foremost securing safety. We just hope to get back to playing and the rest will follow.
