Viola prepare bid for Berg
Sunday 28 June, 2009

Fiorentina are looking to add even more youth to their ranks with the signing of 22-year-old Swedish sensation Marcus Berg.

The Dutch Press understands Fiorentina have watched the Groningen starlet several times over the last year.

Berg is currently on international duty with Sweden at the European Under-21 Championship.

He is the competition's top scorer with seven goals in four games.

For such a young player, Berg has already had a prolific career.

He has scored 33 goals in 57 appearances for Groningen.

The former IFK Göteborg striker is valued at £9.5m and still has two years left to run on his contract with Groningen.

Ajax and Lazio are also interested in his signature.
