Giordano said: "Napoli are definitely looking for one or two defenders, with Maksimovic leaving.

"Would he like to stay? I think it's his wish and perhaps he also carries with him the regret of not having accepted the renewal a year ago.

"He has had offers from Betis, Sevilla, West Ham and Crystal Palace but hasn't decided. I guess he's waiting for Napoli to think again."
