Reports this morning indicate that Insigne’s lay-off, coupled with a niggling injury for Michu will see Napoli act in January.
Both Il Mattino and Gianluca Di Marzio’s website identify Marseille’s Andre Ayew as a priority target for the San Paolo side, with the Ghanaian’s contract expiring in the summer.
Other targets for Rafa Benitez’ side are thought to include Paul-Jose Mpoku of Standard Liege and Ivan Perisic at Wolfsburg.
