After a disappointing 10th place in Serie A last season, Napoli are looking to quickly return to the heights of Italy by strengthening in terms of quality and quantity. In addition to ongoing negotiations for Romelu Lukaku, Billy Gilmour and Scott McTominay, the Napoli leaders are also keen to strengthen the full-back position. According to information from the Spanish newspaper “AS”The latter would have set his sights on Thierry Correa, who plays in Equivalence.
Peter Lim's side would be willing to part ways with the Portuguese for around €12m – a sum the Blues and Whites could spend, provided Cyril Ngong, Gianluca Gaetano and Michael Folorunsho are sold before the end of the summer transfer window.
Thierry Correia trained at Sporting Lisbon and played 36 games for Valencia last season. His importance there was such that he ended the season with the captain's armband. At Napoli, he should be able to be used as a piston to play in Antonio Conte's 3-4-3 formation.
