Fiorentina star Nicolas Gonzalez has named the club he would like to play for amid speculation he could move to Chelsea and Liverpool.
The 25-year-old is understood to be wanted by the Premier League duo ahead of the summer transfer window. González made a name for himself in Italy after playing for Fiorentina.
He started the new season well, scoring 29 goals in 92 appearances for the Italian national team. He has scored seven goals this season and his talent is attracting clubs from all over England.
But González, who started his playing career in his native Argentina before moving to the Premier League, dreams of playing for River Plate. “I want to play for River.
I want my brother to see me in the shirt. It will be very special. But today I am in Europe. “I hope one day it becomes a reality,” he told ESPN.“I will not walk to the river. We all have to overcome it.
I want to win the Copa Libertadores and the championship. “I think it will be a lot of fun.”Nicolas González was included in the “Fiorentina” lineup.
Chelsea and Liverpool are chasing González, who has a £52m transfer fee.The Blues continue to look for a new striker despite spending big in the summer.
Reds could be considering a move to replace Mohamed Salah if he leaves Anfield, with Saudi Arabian side Al Ittihad renewing their interest this summer.
