Claudio Ranieri is being linked with the Fiorentina job.
Fiorentina are seeking a new coach after sacking Delio Rossi last week for his clash with Adem Ljajic.
It would be a return to Florence for Ranieri, as he won the Coppa Italia and Italian Super Cup here from 1993 to 1997.
The former Chelsea manager has also expressed interest in the West Bromwich Albion job.
