LaLiga duo Alavés and Las Palmas are keen on signing ex-Villarreal, Levante and Celta Vigo striker Giuseppe Rossi this winter, says a report in his native Italy.

Rossi recovering from fourth career ACL tear

Rossi, who is recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament suffered while on loan at Celta during the 2016/17 campaign, is currently a free agent after being released by parent club Fiorentina in the summer.

The ACL tear, which occurred in a LaLiga clash against EIbar in April, was the fourth of the 30-year-old's injury-plagued career.

Rossi spent the 2016/17 season on loan at LaLiga side Celta Vigo.

Striker set to return to fitness in December

Rossi is expected to be fit in December, paving the way for the Italian - capped 30 times by the Azzurri - to seal a mid-season transfer to a new club, with Serie A Chievo also said to be targeting the player.

In his loan spell at Celta last term, the forward scored six goals in 29 appearances in all competitions for the Galicians.
