Report: Sunderland and Nottingham Forest keen on Fiorentina defender Comuzzo | OneFootball

Premier League clubs Sunderland, Nottingham Forest and Manchester United are interested in signing Fiorentina centre-back Pietro Comuzzo, reports from Italy claim.

According to what has been reported by TuttoMercatoWeb, the English trio are all keen on the 20-year-old but there have been no concrete offers as of yet.

Earlier this month, new Fiorentina head coach Stefano Pioli praised the youngster, calling him a “strong player, who is here to compete for a place and be a starter.”

Breakthrough season for Comuzzo turns Premier League heads

Pietro Comuzzo had his breakthrough campaign in the 2024-25 season. The centre-back played 33 times for La Viola in Serie A, with another ten appearances in the Conference League.

In November, the 20-year-old was called up by Luciano Spalletti to the Italian national team for the Nations League fixtures against Belgium and France – although Comuzzo did not play in either match.

Now, despite appearing committed to Fiorentina, Premier League clubs are circling. If a suitable offer comes in, the Viola may be tempted to sell but the reports confirm that there is nothing concrete just yet.
