As reported by Corriere dello Sport, Fabio Paratici has identified Diego Coppola as a potential addition for Fiorentina in January, although there are conflicting narratives regarding the future of coach Paolo Vanoli. Several Italian outlets are asserting that Paratici will assume the role of Fiorentina’s sporting director starting next week, and the report from Corriere dello Sport indicates that he has already earmarked various potential signings for the upcoming transfer window.Coppola among Paratici’s targets at FiorentinaBRIGHTON, ENGLAND – AUGUST 16: Diego Coppola of Brighton & Hove Albion participates in the warm-up before the Premier League match against Fulham at Amex Stadium on August 16, 2025, in Brighton, England.

Currently, Fiorentina languishes at the bottom of the Serie A standings with just one victory in 17 league matches. They have already parted ways with Stefano Pioli and appointed Vanoli, but the new coach has yet to yield the desired outcomes.What future for Vanoli at Fiorentina?BERGAMO, ITALY – NOVEMBER 30: Paolo Vanoli, Head Coach of Fiorentina, gazes on before the Serie A match between Atalanta BC and ACF Fiorentina at Gewiss Stadium on November 30, 2025, in Bergamo, Italy.

Corriere dello Sport suggests that substantial changes will occur within the Fiorentina squad during the January transfer window, though two of their standout players, Albert Gudmundsson and Moise Kean, will remain at the Franchi until the season wraps up.
