With Antonio Conte eager to add more Premier League players to his side, Napoli are reportedly keeping track of Harry Maguire’s situation at Manchester United, even if this may not be the best moment to lure him away from Old Trafford.

The defender has experienced mixed fortunes since joining the Red Devils in an £80m move from Leicester in 2019 but current Red Devils’ manager Ruben Amorim is said to rate his qualities, which could complicate his exit.

However, Conte is particularly fond of players coming from the English top tier and sees the 31-year-old as an ‘attractive’ option according to The Athletic, as his side are seeking a defensive reinforcement.

After bringing in Scott McTominay from Manchester United and watching his impact on Serie A, the Italian tactician is said to be even more eager to sign another footballer from a Premier League club, with Maguire perfectly matching the profile of an experienced centre-back that the Partenopei are looking for.

Napoli have been also liked with Juventus’ Danilo recently, who could be included in a swap with Giacomo Raspadori going in the opposite direction.

However, other clubs, such as José Mourinho’s Fenerbahce and Galatasaray, are reportedly monitoring the England international, but Amorim seems willing to rely on the player, who recently played the full 90 minutes in his side’s 2-1 win over Manchester City.
