Paris Saint-Germain defender Thiago Silva has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Fiorentina.
With the centre-back due to depart Parc des Princes at the end of the month, a wide range of clubs are said to be considering a move for the free agent.
As speculation persists over Silva's ambition to play in the Premier League, Everton have emerged as a realistic destination due to the presence of the 35-year-old's former manager Carlo Ancelotti.
However, according to Viola Nation, there is interest from Fiorentina, who are keen to strengthen after a disappointing Serie A campaign.
Between 2009 and 2012, the veteran made 89 appearances for AC Milan, helping the club to their last league title in 2010-11.
The report adds that Fiorentina remain as outsiders due to Everton's extra financial muscle.
