Cristian Tello Herrera joins ACF Fiorentina on loan

Xinhua, January 23, 2016 Adjust font size:

La Liga giants FC Barcelona made a statement in its official website Friday that the club and Fiorentina have reached an agreement for the loan of Cristian Tello until 30 June 2016, once his current loan agreement until the end of the season with FC Porto is rescinded.

Tello played for Barcelona since 2011. He joined FC Porto on loan in 2014. He scored 8 goals in 33 matches in season 2014-2015. But when Porto manager Julen Lopetegui stepped down, Tello lost his regular place in the team.

It was reported by the Italian press that when Tello's contract with Fiorentina expires, both Barcelona and Fiorentina might have some options. But the details of the contract were not disclosed. Endit
