Napoli have reportedly submitted an offer to Girona for Artem Dovbyk, but their priority is still to find a deal for Chelsea outcast Romelu Lukaku.
The Partenopei have now kicked off their new era under Antonio Conte, who has signed a three-year deal in the Campania capital in a bid to start a fresh project following the chaos of the club’s post-Scudetto season.
Conte has already started planning Napoli’s summer transfer window with sporting director Giovanni Manna and is dreaming of a reunion with Lukaku, who shined under the Italian coach during their time together at Inter. Chelsea want €44m, however, making a deal costly for the Partenopei.
Page 15 of today’s Corriere dello Sport reports that Napoli have started to draw up an offer for Dovbyk, willing to pay around €35m for the Girona striker, a fee close to the club’s €40m requests. Atletico Madrid are also keen but have only put €25m on the table for the time being.
Despite this, the Partenopei’s priority is still to find a deal for Lukaku and their hoping to see Chelsea’s €44m price tag drop over the coming months, leaving things unclear as the summer transfer market fast approaches.
