Napoli on hold as Adeyemi talks to Chelsea and Liverpool | OneFootball

Corriere dello Sport reports that Karim Adeyemi has put Napoli talks on hold as Chelsea and Liverpool have sounded out his availability for next season.

Napoli are still looking for a replacement for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Borussia Dortmund winger Adeyemi as one of their primary targets.

Antonio Conte still prefers Manchester United’s Alejandro Garnacho, but Adeyemi has a lower transfer fee, so the Partenopei remain in talks with both players.

However, while Garnacho has already reached a verbal agreement with Napoli, Adeyemi is not convinced about moving to the Stadio Maradona this month.

Corriere dello Sport reiterates that the winger dreams of moving to the Premier League next season.

According to the report, Adeyemi has suspended negotiations with Napoli after talking to Chelsea and Liverpool, which are interested in a potential summer transfer.

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly ready to release the 23-year-old for circa €45m.

Napoli have already sold Kvaratskhelia to PSG for more than €70m, but club director Giovanni Manna recently said the Partenopei won’t pay a price “outside the market value” to sign a replacement.
