Azzedine Ounahi is waiting for Napoli to submit a new offer but the Campania outfit have no intention of matching Leeds United’s latest bid, reports highlight.
The 22-year-old Moroccan midfielder has been quietly impressing with Angers for a little while now but shot to prominence after his incredible work at the World Cup in Qatar, where the Atlas Lions reached a historic fourth place finish. Ounahi looks destined to leave relegation candidates Angers this month and he’s attracted the attention of a number of clubs, including Napoli.
As reported by Il Mattino, Ounahi’s preferred club is Napoli and he’s already agreed personal terms with the club, happy with a five-year deal worth €1.8m net per season. The Partenopei aren’t willing to carry out a bidding war with Leeds United, however, and so won’t match their €25m offer.
Leicester City are also interested and Napoli aren’t keen to compete with clubs who have access to far greater resources.
