Report: Fiorentina to make loan move for Theo Walcott

Fiorentina to swoop for Walcott?

Serie A outfit Fiorentina are looking to make a loan move for Arsenal winger Theo Walcott, according to reports.

The 25-year-old, out of action since January with a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament, returned to first-team action for the final 10 minutes of his side's 3-0 Premier League win against Burnley on November 2.

According to The Express, the Viola want to bring Walcott on loan to the Stadio Artemio Franchi, with Arsene Wenger looking into the move so that the England forward can regain match fitness ahead of next season.

Fiorentina already have one England international, Manchester City defender Micah Richards, in their squad this season.
