Bayern Munich has agreed to sell Germany striker Mario Gomez to Italian club Fiorentina.

Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge reached a deal with Fiorentina president Andrea Della Valle on Monday, with contracts to be finalized and signed in the coming days, the Bundesliga club announced on its website.

“It was Mario Gomez's wish to leave Bayern in the direction of Florence. We've now granted his wish,” Rummenigge said.

Gomez joined Bayern from Stuttgart for a then Bundesliga record fee of up to 35 million euros ($45 million). Bild and Kicker both reported Fiorentina will pay Bayern 20 million euros ($26 million).
