Riccardo Montolivo admits he's working on Italy U21 pal Michele Canini to get him to Fiorentina.

The Cagliari stopper is a target for the Viola and Montolivo said: "He's a great player and I've told him only good things about playing in Florence.

"(Giampaolo) Pazzini? He will succeed Luca Toni at Fiorentina. He's good enough, but will need time."
