Napoli are chasing Gerard Deulofeu, according to reports in Italy.

The Spaniard left Goodison Park in the summer for Barcelona after they activated their £10.6m buy-back clause. However, since making the move, the 23-year-old has failed to establish himself as a regular at the Nou Camp.

And now, according to Rai Sport, Napoli have enquired about taking Deulofeu on loan in January for the rest of the season.


The Italian club are looking to bolster their attacking options to ease the burden on the likes of Dries Mertens and Lorenzo Insigne.
