Napoli are continuing to work on their transfer plans for the upcoming season, and they have now made contact with the agents of Atletico Madrid defender Mario Hermoso.
Sky Sport Italia detail how the club’s new manager, Antonio Conte, has identified Hermoso as a potential target, and sporting director Giovanni Manna has held initial talks with the player’s representatives.
Hermoso is out of contract at Atletico Madrid this summer, and Napoli are hoping to sign him on a free transfer. However, they will face competition from other clubs, including Inter Milan and Juventus.
Despite the interest from other clubs, Napoli are confident that they can sign Hermoso. They are prepared to offer him a four-year contract with an option for a fifth year, and they are also willing to match his current salary of €4 million per year.
