Fiorentina coach Pioli unsure of Kalinic status

Fiorentina coach Stefano Pioli is unsure if he can count on Nikola Kalinic for the new season.

The striker has pushed for a move to AC Milan.

"The sooner I have a complete squad at my disposal, the happier I will be. The club knows that," said Pioli.

“There are several situations that need to be clarified and defined. I spoke to all the players, Nikola is as available as the others, but his situation is not yet defined.

“Vitor Hugo will take a little while, because in Brazil he didn't make the same movements he'll need here. I am sure he's got everything it takes to make his mark.

“In a 4-2-3-1 system, Matias Vecino can play in the two midfielders. There will be games where we make different choices."
