Napoli have shortlisted Paris Saint-Germain star Lee Kang-in as one of their primary targets for the summer (h/t Corrierre dello Sport).

After all but securing the signing of Manchester City superstar Kevin De Bruyne, the Serie A champions plan to bolster their squad on all fronts in the transfer window.

Kang-in is among the targets to add depth to the attack, and he could be on the move this summer.

The South Korean star has fallen down the pecking order at Parc des Princes, having made just six starts in 45 games this season.

The treble-winner has shown his quality even with the limited opportunities, racking up six goals and assists apiece in Ligue 1.

However, he has struggled to break into the starting XI due to the presence of Ousmane Dembele, Desire Doue, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Bradley Barcola.

PSG are open to selling the 24-year-old if he wants to seek opportunities elsewhere.

With a contract running until 2028, the former Valencia star is valued at €40 million, but Napoli believe the fee can be negotiated if he wants to leave the French capital.

The Champions League winners are also on the verge of signing River Plate prodigy Franco Mastantuono, which will further dent his game time.

His versatility could be a massive asset to Antonio Conte’s squad, who will be competing in the Champions League next season.

The Neapolitans are also keen on Inter Milan midfielder Davide Frattesi, who is willing to leave the San Siro after being disappointed with the lack of opportunities.

Napoli are also looking to strengthen their backline, identifying Bologna centre-back Sam Beukema as a top target.

The Scudetto winners have been in talks to sign Lille striker Jonathan David on a free transfer.
