Report: Fiorentina want Jonathan dos Santos loan

Fiorentina are reportedly preparing a loan move for Barcelona midfielder Jonathan dos Santos.

The 23-year-old, who made his first appearance of the season in Sunday's 3-2 win over Valencia, had been expected to be a regular member of Barcelona's first-team squad this season.

However, according to La Nazione, the Spanish outfit are prepared to let the Mexican depart on loan if he can secure regular football in Serie A.

It is believed that initial talks have taken place between the two clubs.
