Lucas Torreira’s move to Napoli appears to have collapsed, as his agent confirms “I’m talking to other clubs”.

The Sampdoria midfielder looked set to join the Partenopei in the summer, with the Neapolitans ready to pay the €25m release clause in his contract.

However, his representative spoke on Radio Crc today, and appeared to suggest that the deal has collapsed.

“There was a basic agreement with Napoli,” Pablo Bentancur confirmed.

“There was a basic agreement with Napoli,” Pablo Bentancur confirmed.

“However, due to a timing problem I’m talking to other clubs. Everyone takes his own path.”

The agent’s comment about timing may indicate that Torreira was supposed to replace Jorginho, whose own agent has confirmed there will be no talks over his future before the end of the season.
