There are reports Sime Vrsaljko has given the all-clear to join Napoli in January, so the club must agree terms with Atletico Madrid.
The Croatia international was pin-pointed as an ideal addition to the squad after Faouzi Ghoulam sustained a serious knee injury.
According to Il Mattino newspaper, Vrsaljko’s entourage has sent signals that he’d be very happy to make the move mid-season.
The only sticking point now is the contract he has with Atletico Madrid, which runs to June 2021 worth €2m per season.

The only sticking point now is the contract he has with Atletico Madrid, which runs to June 2021 worth €2m per season.
It’s suggested he would accept spreading the salary over a longer five-year contract with the addition of performance-related bonuses.
Atleti are demanding €20m for the former Sassuolo player, but Napoli don’t seem prepared to go beyond €14m.
