Napoli target Fiorentina midfielder Veretout: the latest

Napoli have reignited their interest in Fiorentina's midfielder Jordan Veretout. The Partenopei have made of the Frenchman a concrete target, and positive contacts have been held in the last few hours. Should De Laurentiis's club decide to pursue a more experienced player rather than youngsters like Almendra and Bennacer, the former Saint Etienne midfielder would be the ideal profile for Napoli to invest part of their budget on.

Moreover, Veretout has the same agent (Mario Giuffredi) as Napoli's latest acquisition Giovanni Di Lorenzo. In the last few hours, Giuffredi held positive talks with Giuntoli and De Laurentiis and the Frenchman has become a concrete target for the Partenopei.
