Immobile open to Napoli move

By Football Italia staff

Ciro Immobile admits he’d “appreciate” a move to hometown club Napoli, as Torino haven’t activated their option.

The striker is on loan from Sevilla with an option to buy for €11m, but the Granata are still considering whether or not to keep him on a permanent basis.

“At this moment it is not possible to say whether Torino will activate their option to buy,” agent Alessandro Moggi told Radio Crc.

“The option is still valid, but the two clubs need to meet up and reach an agreement.

“As things stand right now, it is right to say Ciro Immobile is a player who belongs to Sevilla.”

Immobile said he’d “appreciate” a move to his hometown club Napoli, so is that still the case?

“Being from Torre Annunziata, which is in the province of Naples, clearly Aurelio De Laurentiis’ club would be a destination he’d appreciate,” added the agent.

“Having said that, we need to evaluate if there really is the possibility of playing there. If Toro don’t exercise their option, he will return to Sevilla and then we’ll see what happens.”
