Rocco Commisso, the new president of Fiorentina, has definitely given Viola fans something to look forward to ahead of the upcoming 2019/20 campaign. Several changes have been made in relation to the squad - the latest being the acquisition of Franck Ribery, who was presented yesterday in front of about ten thousand people. "I met Franck, he is a legend," Commisso stated to Sky Sport about the former Bayern Munich player. "Nobody in Italy, apart from Cristiano Ronaldo, has done what he has done."
He then spoke of the transfer market: "We have invested heavily. The salaries are rising and the new sponsor Mediacom will bring in more money than in the past. Then it will only take time, it takes months or years. There is Financial Fair Play, you can't spend money if you don't have revenue. Will I be in the Curva Fiesole at the first match? I've always said, this Fiorentina is first for the fans and then for Rocco Commisso. I have been at the Stadium recently, the fans are more important than me because they have been supporting this team for years. My job is to make them feel positive emotions like I felt the day I arrived in Florence. From that moment I said to myself that I needed to do something beautiful."
