According to Sportitalia, Tuttomercatoweb and TVP Sport, Dragowski will be available at the right price with Serie A club Atalanta leading the way with others including West Ham interested.

Fiorentina wants €30m for their goalkeeper, while his true valuation is probaalby closer to €15m.

The Poland international has been in impressive form since joining the Serie A outfit in the summer of 2016, with 79 league appearances under his belt.

According to sports journalist Nicolò Schira there are three Premier League clubs in the form of Everton, Tottenham and West Ham who have asked for info and availability for Fiorentina’s goalkeeper.
