Another Felipe comes to Fiorentina. This time he costs 9 million euros

Another Felipe comes to Fiorentina. After having sold the midfielder Felipe Melo to Juventus for 25 million euros in the summer (the player was got for 8 million a year earlier) , Fiorentina ignited the winter market from - the Brazilian defender Felipe Dias da Silva dal Belo, 25, will come from Udinese. The transaction has already been confirmed and will be permanent: Fiorentina will have to pay 9 million euros in three years and the player will sign a four-year contract.

Felipe was followed by the sporting director Pantaleo Corvino in summer and had come to offer him 12 million euros. The move of the Brazilian will most likely result in the departure of one of the central defenders currently in Viola: Gamberini is part of the non-transferable the group and Dainelli is the captain of Fiorentina. So it should be either Kroldrup, out of contract in June 2010, or Cesare Natali, who arrived in Florence in the summer from Torino.
