Fiorentina are keen on bringing in United States midfielder Weston McKennie from Juventus, a source has told ESPN.

McKennie, 25, was left out of Juventus' squad for their preseason friendly against Brest on Aug. 3 alongside Wojciech Szczesny and Federico Chiesa.

Thiago Motta, the new Juventus manager, said post-match that the trio were available for transfer.

"Chiesa and all the other players not called up for today's game are not part of the project," he said. "We have been clear with them, they have to find a new solution and new club as soon as possible.
