Nikola Kalinic has reportedly found himself the subject of a €40m (£34.2m) offer from Chinese club Tianjin Quanjian.

The Fiorentina forward has scored 12 goals in all competitions this season, taking his tally for the Serie A giants to 25 strikes in 65 appearances since signing in August 2015.

However, according to Corriere dello Sport,that has resulted in interest from the Chinese Super League, with Tianjin Quanjian said to have had a big-money bid turned down by Fiorentina.

It has been suggested, however, that the Croatian international has a release clause of €50m (£42.8m) in his contract, a value which could be met in the near future.

Before his success at Dnipro and Fiorentina, Kalinic endured a disappointing period with Blackburn Rovers, scoring just seven goals in 44 Premier League matches.
