Hamsik set for Evergrande move?

By Football Italia staff

It is reported that imminent talks will take place between Napoli and Guangzhou Evergrande over the sale of Marek Hamsik.

The Chinese Super League club, coached by Italy legend Fabio Cannavaro, are interested in tying up a €30m deal for the Slovakian.

According to Corriere dello Sport, a meeting is planned in Milan between officials of the two clubs.

30-year-old Hamsik has been with the San Paolo club for over a decade but recently admitted he was ‘tempted’ by the possibility of a move to the Far East.

The Azzurri captain scored seven goal and claimed three assists from 49 appearances in all competitions for Napoli last season.

Despite his contribution towards the club’s record Serie A points total, the Partenopei finished as runners up to champions Juventus.
