Fiore在今年夏天拒絕了國米的邀約，選擇了FIO。 The midfielder arrived at the Stadio Franchi on loan in June, but has now revealed that Inter were in a position to end his Valencia nightmare. 他以租借的方式在七月來到了FIO，但他透露國米曾經有意邀他加盟。 "I chose Fiorentina because I was convinced by the project," he told channel4.com’s Football Italia. "我之所以選擇了FIO，是因為他們的計畫使我信服。" "They wanted a fresh start after a difficult season and I had just had a tough year, so we had the same ambitions. I wanted to prove what I could do. "在經歷艱難的球季後，FIO想要有個新的開始，而我也歷經一個困苦的賽季，我們的 目標是相同的。我想証明我還能繼續踢球。" "Other teams courted me, Inter being one of them. But the Nerazzurri have so many champions – here I’m cutting out a space for myself in a team that’s young and ambitious." "有其他的球隊表示對我有興趣。國米是其中之一。但國米有已經有了許多好手─而在 這個充滿企圖心和年輕球員的球隊中，我找到自己的位置。 Fiore has undoubtedly been one of the major reasons behind the Viola’s renaissance following their disastrous campaign last term. 在經歷一個令人失望的賽季後，Fiore毫無疑問的是FIO本季復興的功臣。 Despite almost being relegated, the former Lazio star has helped his side battle for a place in the top four. 儘管上季差點降級，但這位前Lazio球星幫助FIO晉升前四甲。 "I didn’t imagine that we could be so high up in the table," he admitted. "There’ve been so many changes here. Eight players in the starting line-up weren’t here last term and there is also a new Coach. "對於目前高升的成績是我無法想像的。"他坦承到，"這隻球隊有了許多改變。與上季 比較，先發中有八人是新面孔，而且還有了新教練。" "Normally, to build a team you need time. Accumulating this many points was a dream. However, if we’ve done it we’ve probably deserved it. And it’s just fine like this." "正常來說，建立一隻球隊是需要時間。對我們而言，目前所拿到的積分猶如是一場夢。 然而，我們確實做到。這樣似乎也沒什麼不好。" Fiore, who is hoping to break back into the Italian national set-up, is also keeping his fingers crossed that his Tuscan stint lasts longer than a year. Fiore不但希望可重回國家隊，更企望不只在FIO只待一年。 "Fiorentina have the option on me when my contract is up and I hope they exercise it," he concluded. "FIO在我的租約結束後有優先購買權，我希望他們可以行使這項權利。" -- 如果沒有大的意外的話， FIO應該不會放走小花吧......... --
