It would not be the first time that Fiorentina have cast their eye over the Premier League for reinforcements, as they brought in Manor Solomon from Tottenham Hotspur and Jack Harrison from Leeds United.
Bueno would be a replacement at left-back for Fabiano Parisi , who is going to be out of action for several months after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee.
They do have others for the role, including Robin Gosens, Niccolò Fortini and the impressive Luis Balbo.

What happened
Fiorentina have reportedly set their sights on Wolverhampton Wanderers left-back Hugo Bueno. The Spanish defender impressed during his campaign with Wolves, attracting attention from the Serie A side. No fee or formal offer has been disclosed, and the report indicates Fiorentina are weighing up a move for the player who has been a key part of Wolves' defensive setup.
Chance analysis
Fiorentina need depth at left-back and Bueno fits the profile of a young, attack-minded full-back who has proven himself in the Premier League. For Wolves, losing Bueno would weaken their defensive depth, though they may view a sale as beneficial given their need to comply with PSR or fund further recruitment. The transfer remains at the rumor stage with no concrete bid reported.
If completed, Fiorentina gain a promising attacking left-back while Wolves lose squad depth in defense; no immediate match impact as the transfer is not yet advanced.
Monitor Bueno's status as a Wolves starter; if he departs, Wolves' defensive depth and Fiorentina's left-back options both change ahead of next season's fixtures.
