We covered a rumor made in Italy earlier this month that Brighton & Hove Albion was interested in Christian Kouamé of Fiorentina.
It was also mentioned that the forward might switch clubs during this transfer period and that the Serie A team has started negotiations to let him go.
The 24-year-old is the subject of a new report from Gianluca Di Marzio, who claims that Brighton are actively courting his services. Empoli joins the Seagulls in the pursuit of the international from Ivory Coast.

According to reports, if the player makes a predetermined number of appearances for the Premier League team this season, Graham Potter’s team “may propose Fiorentina” a deal to take the player on loan with an obligation to buy.
Nedim Bajrami of Empoli is reportedly getting closer to joining Fiorentina, and Szymon Urkowski of Fiorentina brought up Kouamé in their negotiations for him.
In three games (113 minutes) for Fiorentina this season, Kouamé has one assist.
Gianluca Di Marzio exclusively discusses Brighton’s efforts to sign the wide receiver; he makes no mention of Kouamé’s readiness for a transfer to The Amex.
