Nicolo Zaniolo’s entourage confirms interest in Napoli move

The entourage of Aston Villa and Galatasaray winger Nicolo Zaniolo has confirmed the player’s interest in a move to Napoli.

Reports recently from Sky Italia have stated that Zaniolo, who has been linked with Fiorentina, could also be the subject of an offer from Napoli. Giovanni Manna, who will join the Partenopei in the summer as the sporting director, knows the Italian well.

Zaniolo’s entourage has now spoken up about the interest and links with Napoli, confirming that a move to the Maradona would be a welcome destination for the Italian, who is said to be keen on a return to Italy in the summer.

His entourage informed Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli (via CM): “Naples is a beautiful place, the truth is that it would be a very welcome solution for Nicolò.”

Fiorentina have tried to move for the winger but haven’t made progress yet, with Galatasaray likely to only sell the player instead of loaning him out again. Because Zaniolo’s deal at Gala doesn’t run out anytime soon, Gala can demand a significant fee for the player.
