Italy press claim Fiorentina is hoping to sign Hammer Angelo Ogbonna on loan in the January transfer window, and Gianluca Nani says “It can happen if he cannot immerse himself in this world [English football]. A return to Italy in January is strong.”
Gianluca Nani worked at West Ham under Zola between 2008 and 2010 as technical director and had responsibility for the academy, scouting,transfers and for the training ground department. He was dismissed when Gold and Sullivan took over the club. In July 2o12 he joined Zola again at Watford under former West Ham CEO Scott Duxbury.
Ogbonna is recovering from injury, but Nani has suggested that he has not adapted to the English football and life and could be ready for a return to Italy. TMW reported that Fiorentina are showing an interest in signing Ogbonna on loan in January, hoping to take him on a short-term deal until the end of the season.
