Fiorentina ‘in talks’ over Wolves’ Hugo Bueno as Villa ‘step up’ striker hunt | OneFootball

Fiorentina are reportedly in talks with Wolves over left-back Hugo Bueno. The speculation comes with Fabiano Parisi set to miss several months after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee.

According to The72, Wolves and Birmingham City are keen on Real Salt Lake forward Sergi Solans.

Bueno, 23, has been with Wolves since 2019 and made his Premier League debut in 2022. He spent 2024/25 on loan at Feyenoord, making 20 Eredivisie appearances.

Solans has six goals and four assists in 14 MLS appearances this season, and a fee of around £4m has been suggested. The 23-year-old came through Girona’s academy and joined Real Salt Lake this year.

Arsenal are said to have made Morgan Rogers their top target this summer, with an approach to Aston Villa considered likely. Rogers was named Europa League Player of the Season after helping Villa beat Freiburg in the final in Istanbul last month.

Villa are among the clubs linked with USA striker Folarin Balogun, who reportedly wants a move back to England. After a 19-goal season at Monaco, he is believed to be valued at around £43m, with Monaco having paid nearly £35m in 2023. His double against Paraguay in the USA’s opening World Cup game made him the first American to score twice in a World Cup match since 1930.

Villa are also keeping tabs on Germany forward Nick Woltemade, with Borussia Dortmund and Atletico Madrid among his admirers and a price of around £56m cited.
