The Italian international has featured 72 times for the Viola in Serie A, but he has followed in the footsteps of Roberto Baggio and signed for the club's bitter rivals.

Fiorentina coach Stefano Pioli : "He's made up his mind.

"I've only spoken to him once on the telephone and I can't waste my energy thinking about what could have been.

"We just have to think about the future."

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is a known admirer of the Italian having handed him his international debut last year.

Manchester United also voiced their interest in Bernardeschi as potential a back-up buy if they fail in their pursuit for Inter Milan's Ivan Perisic.
