Kristian Thorstvedt, a midfielder currently playing for Sassuolo, has been a topic of discussion for a potential move to Fiorentina, who are seeking midfield reinforcements. However, the Norwegian international has made it clear that his current focus is entirely on the World Cup. In a recent interview, Thorstvedt stated, "Right now, I'm only thinking about the World Cup. There will be time for everything else later. I owe a lot to Sassuolo. I've been here for four years and have become a much stronger player since I arrived. For this, I can only be grateful."
