Fiorentina coach Sinisa Mihajlovic has welcomed new signing Romulo - and admits interest in Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani.

The Tuscans have been heavily linked with the unsettled Liverpool man, who returned to Anfield when Juventus refused to take up their option.

"I would like to play the 4-3-1-2 system, but that means we'd need an Aquilani-style player," declared Mihajlovic.

"Romulo will help, as he reminds me of early Douglas Maicon, but we have to work on his defensive skills. As for Stevan Jovetic, I asked him not to get hurt..."
