Fiorentina coach Cesare Prandelli admits they miss Fede Chiesa.

Prandelli has only just taken charge, but concedes selling Chiesa to Juventus has hurt the team.

He said, “Two months ago there was a player who used to take the ball until the edge of the opponents' area. He is not here anymore and he is not going to return. We must do the same without him, but we need collaboration and team spirit."

Fiorentina meet Genoa on Monday night.

Prandelli added: "It's going to be a tough game. We have faced fear and I think players have understood how to overcome it, our target is to reach 40 points, the sooner we reach it the better it is. We miss our fans but we must only focus on the victory."
