Udinese director Cristiano Giaretta says they're close to buying outright Fiorentina midfielder Juan Cuadrado.
The Colombia international is co-owned between the two clubs and spent this season in Florence, shattering his personal record with 11 Serie A goals.
"I can confirm it is true. We are really only details away now," director of sport Giaretta told La Nazione.
"We are in a great position to complete Cuadrado's definitive transfer to Fiorentina."
