Napoli: Zielinski imminent

By Football Italia staff

Napoli have reportedly nearly secured the signing of Udinese's Piotr Zielinski, who'll be swapped for Camilo Zuniga.

The Partenopei are involved in a complicated deal that will ultimately secure the midfielder, now loaned to Empoli.

The Zebrette's request of €18m was initially considered a little too costly by the Partenopei, but both Il Corriere dello Sport and Sport Italia confirm that a deal will be reached very shortly.

The new agreement will involve loaning Zuniga to Udinese, who will in turn loan him to Watford, where he will be reunited with his old mentor Coach Walter Mazzarri.

The final price of the deal will depend on what portion the Friulani are willing to pay of Zuniga's €3.5m yearly salary, and could range from €14m to €16m.

In any case it seems these details will not represent an obstacle, and the two parties are expected to find an agreement very soon.
