Antonio Conte is looking to sign one of Tottenham Hotspur’s players for Napoli to help aid his team’s push for the Serie A title.
Napoli are currently leading the way in the Italian top flight, although they are about to lose a key player in Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to Paris Saint-Germain.
The Italian club are now looking for replacements and have turned their attention to Conte’s previous team in the last few hours.
Napoli want to sign Timo Werner
Napoli have started exploring a deal to sign Tottenham winger Timo Werner on loan, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.
There have been exploratory contacts for the German forward who is currently on loan from RB Leipzig at the Premier League club, who have an £8.5m buy option.
Spurs do not want to let Werner leave before the North London derby due to injuries, however, after the match, that stance could change.
Following their clash with Arsenal, the Lilywhites could give the green light for Werner to leave and to find a new club to spend the remainder of the season on loan.
The 28-year-old has been very underwhelming in North London this season with Werner’s display against Tamworth being questioned.
Tottenham have been chasing a deal for Randal Kolo Muani and they will surely hope that accelerates if they were to let Werner leave this month.
What is the latest with Randal Kolo Muani to Tottenham?
TBR Football understands that Juventus believe they are now Randal Kolo Muani’s first choice ahead of Tottenham.
Tottenham held extensive talks for Kolo Muani last week, however, Juve look to have pulled ahead being able to offer Champions League football and after the player spoke to French boss Didier Deschamps.
A deal for the 26-year-old is expected to be a loan with an option to buy for around £50 million, which is significantly less than the 76 million PSG paid back in 2023.
