The winger told Corriere Della Sera: "Fiorentina refused offers of £63 million.

     "The summer has been peaceful, there were no anxieties related to the market because, in agreement with the club, I decided that I would stay in Florence.
"It was the best choice, and knowing that I'm worth so much does not detract from my sleep, nor does it affect my life.
"Prices in recent years have skyrocketed and I'm simply going to try and not think about it."

The son of the former Italy international Enrico - started in Fiorentina's 3-0 win over Napoli towards the end of last season.
