# Chelsea ace unlikely to move to Serie A

![torres.jpg](https://cdn.footballtransfertavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/558366_434791843228665_6793076_n_large.jpg)Despite claiming that he is set on staying at Chelsea no matter who arrives in the summer, we at the Football Transfer Tavern feel that [Fox Sports](https://msn.foxsports.com/foxsoccer/seriea/story/fiorentina-plays-down-fernando-torres-speculation-chelsea-striker-042613?) could be right when they link Fernando Torres with a move away from Stamford Bridge.

The forward has finally found some form this season yet has still been subject to jokes and rather a lot of harsh criticism and never looks totally happy or comfortable in a Chelsea shirt. Even the appointment of interim manager Rafael Benitez has not reinvigorated the forward and given the fact that a new striker will certainly be arriving in the summer, Torres is certainly not guaranteed a place in the line up next season.

Now it seems that he is being linked with a move to Italian side Fiorentina who are keen on the player yet have more than a passing concern over the wages and the cost of acquiring Torres with technical director Eduardo Macia claiming: “If these big names are linked to Fiorentina, it means that we are considered a great team. But some players right now are outside of the parameters of Italian football, especially in regard to wages.”

Torres has also been linked with a return to former side Atletico Madrid who are on course to make the Champions League next season.
