Napoli proposal for Wolves star Adama Traore

Napoli are already looking to the future and there are reports of an initial approach for Wolverhampton Wanderers attacking winger Adama Traore.

The Partenopei are runaway Serie A leaders with a nine-point advantage over the chasing pack after thrashing Juventus 5-1 last week.

That is only increasing their ambitions and director of sport Cristiano Giuntoli is making plans to reinforce the squad next summer.

According to Sportitalia and Gazzetta dello Sport transfer expert Alfredo Pedullà, one of those targets is Wolves attacking winger Adama Traore.

He turns 27 later this month and his contract is only valid until June 30, so he could be snapped up as a free agent.

Traore has not yet confirmed he will leave Wolves, but if he does, then Napoli have made known their proposal worth €2.5m per season plus another €0.5m in add-ons.

The Spain international would be seen as a replacement for Hirving Lozano, who is not part of Napoli’s future plans and will leave to avoid running down the contract to June 2024.
