Liverpool are among the clubs keeping a close eye on Fiorentina midfielder Cher Ndour, with the Italian emerging as a notable name in the market after an impressive rise in Serie A. As reported by Caught Offside, the 20-year-old is attracting attention from both England and Italy, with Aston Villa, Inter and Juventus also monitoring his situation.
Ndour has already earned two senior Italy caps and is building a reputation as a midfielder of considerable promise. His profile appears to align with what a number of clubs are seeking, particularly sides looking for physical power, athletic coverage and the ability to carry the ball through central areas.

Cher Ndour transfer interest grows
Liverpool’s interest is understandable. The club are believed to be assessing long-term midfield options and Ndour fits the broad description of a modern rotational player, someone capable of covering ground, competing physically and contributing in possession. Aston Villa are also attentive, while Inter and Juventus see clear appeal in a young Italian talent with room to develop further.
For now, the situation remains at an exploratory stage. There have been no formal bids, and the current process is better described as assessment rather than negotiation. That often happens with emerging talents, particularly when several clubs are gathering information at the same time.
Fiorentina stance on midfield future
Fiorentina are in no rush to entertain an exit. Ndour is under contract until June 2029, which gives the club a strong position, and their preference has been for him to continue progressing in Florence rather than move prematurely. That approach has naturally shaped the early market.
The report indicates a valuation in the region of €30m to €35m, higher than the estimated €20m market figure. Even so, that level is still seen as manageable for Premier League clubs if interest hardens in a future window.
