Napoli have reportedly set their sights on Bournemouth defender Nathan Ake, despite the €30m price-tag.
The Dutch centre-back just turned 24 last month and spent most of his career in England with Chelsea, going on loan spells to Reading and Watford before the €22.8m transfer to Bournemouth.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Napoli believe Ake could suit their squad and be an extra reinforcement in defence.
He also has an eye for goal and scored three in 31 Premier League games this season.
When needed Ake can play at left-back or even in a more advanced defensive midfield role.
