Fiorentina hitman Christian Vieri has set his sights on a return to the national side after scoring the winning goal against Napoli.
The 34-year-old has 49 Azzurri caps, but he hasn’t featured since 2005 after a tough period in his career.
After initial scepticism, the Viola fans have truly warmed to Vieri and his impressive form has allowed him to set his sights high.
“My objective is to return to the national side,” he enthused after last night’s triumph at the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
“But for now I just need to concentrate on keeping up this form.
"When I first came here people said that I was here to hibernate or for the money, but I’m back in condition.”
Fiorentina are now 19 games unbeaten in all competitions and sitting in fourth place with five wins and five draws to their name.
