Paulo Sousa 'agrees deal with Fiorentina'

Basel manager Paulo Sousa has reportedly agreed a deal to take charge of Fiorentina.

The Viola are currently without a manager following the dismissal of head coach Vincenzo Montella on Monday.

However, according to Sky Sport Italia, the Florence outfit have moved quickly to fill the position and they have reached an agreement with Sousa to join the club.

Sousa joined Basel last May and guided the club to the Swiss League title last season.
