Italian Serie A club Fiorentina and English Championship side Leeds United are battling to sign Ghana international Joseph Paintsil.
Paintsil has been a livewire for KRC Genk in the Belgian top flight.
According to Sky Sports, Genk could consider bids around the €10 million (£8.5 million) area as Leeds United aims to augment their squad in a bid to regain Premier League status following their emotion at the end of last season.
Meanwhile, Paintsil is also wanted by Fiorentina as the deadline of the European transfer window approaches.
It is believed that both clubs have been engaging with the Belgian side to figure out how a transfer could happen for the 25-year-old who played impressively last season.
Despite missing the 2022 World Cup for Ghana, Paintsil had an impressive campaign with Genk scoring an incredible 18 goals and also providing 14 assists.
With two assists in just four games for Genk this season, Paintsil has already proven his playmaking prowess.
Paintsil was initially wanted by three Premier League clubs including Brighton and Hove Albion but a move did not materialize.
