Fiorentina confirm official City bidby Adam Marshall, 16 July 2008

Lupoli: Set for English return

Fiorentina have revealed they have received an offer from Norwich City for Arturo Lupoli.

The young Italian, who failed to make the grade at Arsenal, has been

the subject of a concrete bid from The Canaries although Fiorentina

would prefer a loan deal.

The official statement on the Viola''s website stressed that the

problems could be resolved in the coming days in order for the Italian

to make his way to East Anglia.

After making only one Premier League appearance for The Gunners, the

21-year-old had more playing time on loan at Derby County before

returning to his homeland.

He spent last term with Treviso on a temporary basis, but failed to

show his best form, probably a little surprisingly as he had served

notice of his promise during some cup outings for Arsene Wenger''s side.

However, Siena and Udinese were both linked with his signature after the end of the Italian season.

And assumed that meant they were accepting our offer?

Does anybody have any idea how much he would cost (Approx) as no doubt we would get an undisclosed fee statement so as we would have no idea how much we spent.The club would expect us to believe it was about £4 Million! When in reality it could be £250,000 i.e Strihavka!Sounds a potentialy good signing though, ggod news at last.

Remember him impressing whilst at Derby (in fact so much so I think he was linked with the Milan clubs).

Can''t see anything on the official Fiorentina website though, but my Italian isn''t up to much...

Good player IMO, but I''ll celebrate if he signs, coz history will tell us that NCFC have bid for players that they know full well they have no hope of signing. Just hope this isn''t another one of those occasions

We''ve made an approach for a permanent transfer, they''d prefer a temporary move.

Good player, did well at Derby, I don''t think they wanted him to leave either.  Goind forward we could have some creativity.  Fingers crossed it goes through, I don''t suppose Norwich are too happy that it has been announced.

 It says :-

 Fiorentina comunica di aver ricevuto dal club inglese Norwich City Football Club una richiesta per il trasferimento a titolo definitivo delle prestazioni sportive dell’attaccante Arturo Lupoli. La Fiorentina dalla sua parte sarebbe disponibile al trasferimento a titolo temporaneo.

What could be plainer ?

[/quote]Actually, I think "comunica di aver ricevuto dal club inglese" implies that "na richiesta per il trasferimento a titolo definitivo".  Shocking journalism.
