Freddie Ljungberg is seemingly edging towards the exit door at Arsenal after it was confirmed talks over his future are ongoing.
Fiorentina have opened talks with Arsenal about the transfer of the Swedish midfielder.
And for the first time Ljungberg's agent has confirmed that talks are ongoing.
"The two clubs are in discussions," Claes Elefalk told Swedish news agency TT.
"If they come to an agreement, Fredrik can think about looking at a move."
"Fredrik is really happy at Arsenal, but if it is an option, he could also consider a move to Fiorentina."
Both Manchester City and Sunderland have also been linked with a move for Ljungberg, but the lure of Serie A seems the most tempting option available to the 30-year-old Swede.
Reports in Italy have also suggested that Arsenal have enquired about the possibility of including striker Valeri Bojinov in the deal.
The Bulgarian is not part of Fiorentina's plans and is available - but Arsenal would have to offer money as well as Ljungberg to land Bojinov, although a loan move could be an option for The Gunners - should they firm up their interest in the 21-year-old, who spent last season on loan at Juventus.
