Napoli not giving up on Federico Chiesa pursuit

Napoli are keen on signing Liverpool star Federico Chiesa as they continue their search for a top-class winger (h/t journalist Gianluca Di Marzio).

The Partenopei have failed to sign a replacement for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia since his transfer to Paris Saint-Germain in January.

The Serie A winners are in advanced talks to secure a deal for Bologna’s Dan Ndoye.

They are also pondering a move for Chiesa, who is considered surplus to requirements at Liverpool.

The Italian winger moved to Anfield from Juventus last summer, but he made just 14 appearances across all competitions.

The 27-year-old wants to leave Liverpool to revive his career and Serie A has been touted as a potential destination.

Italy’s new manager Gennaro Gattuso has encouraged the former Juve star to play regularly to regain his place in the national team.

Having signed Belgian midfielder Kevin De Bruyne on a free transfer, the Partenopei are eyeing more big names this summer.

Jadon Sancho and Jack Grealish are among their potential targets, but their valuation and steep wages could be a stumbling block.

The Italian giants have offered around €40 million to sign Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez, but the Reds value him at €70m.

They are hoping to sell Victor Osimhen, who spent the last season on loan at Galatasaray, to make room for Nunez.
