The Bees failed with a formal bid worth in excess of $42m this summer for Gonzalez and according to Italian transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, his excellent form is set to be rewarded with a new long-term deal.

American-backed Fiorentina are one of the most financially stable clubs in Serie A and were able to reject a big-money bid from the Premier League to keep one of their finest attacking assets.
Gonzalez is widely regarded as one of the best wingers in Italy and has already scored four goals from seven matches this season so far.
The news is expected to be confirmed by the club in the coming days.
