Amauri on verge of joining Fiorentina

Brazilian striker Amauri is undergoing a medical at Fiorentina after having fallen out of favour at Juventus.

Amauri has not made a single appearance for Juventus this season since returning in the offseason from a loan spell at Parma.

Fiorentina confirmed on Tuesday on its Twitter account that Amauri is having a medical, and the Serie A side released a picture of an official team shirt with Amauri’s name on the back.

Juventus paid Palermo at a time 22.8 million euro ($A28.3 million) in May 2008 for Amauri, but the forward has struggled at the Serie A giant and is not wanted by coach Antonio Conte.

The 31-year-old Amauri will be eager to rediscover the form which made him a firm favourite of the fans at Palermo.
