Fiorentina have joined the race for Everton loanee Henry Onyekuru ahead of the reopening of the transfer window, as per reports.

Calciomercato.com is reporting that the Viola and Juventus are amongst the teams in Italy monitoring the situation of the Nigeria international.

Europe's biggest teams are taking an interest in Onyekuru, having plundered seven goals in his first fourteen matches for Anderlecht this season.

Fiorentina and Juventus face competition from Manchester United and Barcelona for the services of the Nigerian star who is valued in the region of 25 million euros (N10.5 billion) and the Italians are certain to lose out if comes to a bidding war.

If the Red Devils win the race for Onyekuru, he would become the first Nigeria international to represent the Premier League giants.

The 20-year-old has two caps for the Nigerian national team.
