Fiorentina have approached Santos about a price for Gabriel Barbosa.

The exciting young striker is emerging as the Viola's top target for the summer market, says Globoesporte.

Flush with the cash from Juan Cuadrado's sale to Chelsea, Fiorentina are ready to bid for Gabigol.

The youngster is due to join Barcelona, which have first refusal for him, but their 2015 transfer ban opens the door to rivals like Fiorentina.
