Lucas Torreira shuts door for Miralem Pjanić’s transfer to Fiorentina

Lucas Torreira is expected to complete a loan move to Fiorentina that would likely scupper Miralem Pjaniu0107’s proposed loan to the Italian club. The Uruguayan is currently an Arsenal player, though he played last season on loan to Atlético Madrid. It’s understood he will be sealing his move to Florence today, giving FC Barcelona a headache as they seek to offload Pjaniu0107’s massive contract.

Torreira preferred joining the viola over Eintracht Frankfurt, who also made a play for him.

Juventus is the Bosnian’s favorite destination but they have been unable to find a place for Aaron Ramsey, who also is on high wages.
