Napoli are reportedly set to hand Moise Kean an escape route from his Everton nightmare despite the recent controversy surrounding the £27million striker.
The 20-year-old was caught on camera hosting a house party at his Cheshire apartment despite the coronavirus lockdown - and has also failed to impress on the field after signing for the Merseyside club last summer.
And now, Corriere dello Sport believe that Napoli are interested in snapping up the frontman, with Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti also keen to swoop for players from his former club.
Kean was widely-tipped as one of the most talented young talents in Europe before securing a Premier League switch but, after scoring just one goal, may already be braced for an exit.
The young striker could be hit with a £100,000-plus fine from Everton - and has also attracted the wrath of Ancelotti after his social media antics were revealed.
Kean uploaded footage, which featured several women who are believed to be models, of the gathering to Snapchat.
His club were angered after learning that Kean had flouted lockdown measures, with chiefs understood to be dismayed with his lack of discipline.
Ancelotti's hopes of a double signing from Napoli could facilitate an immediate return to his homeland for former Juventus starlet Kean.
The 60-year-old is thought to be keen on snapping up Allan and Hirving Lozano to bolster his ranks at Goodison Park, and the fact that both Kean and Lozano are represented by super-agent Mino Raiola may assist with negotiations.
The two stars are said to be eager to secure moves away from their current clubs, with Lozano particularly hopeful of a move to the English top flight after his failure to adapt in Serie A.
The tricky Mexican has only netted three goals for Napoli shirt this term and may be looking to fashion an exit due to his unsettled nature in the country.
Allan, meanwhile, has struggled to impress Gennaro Gattuso in Naples, and the notorious hard-man is believed to be unimpressed with players who fail to train with his desired intensity.
The Brazilian midfielder joined the club 2015 from Udinese but has been linked with a move away this summer.
Reports speculate that Kean may be able to improve under Gattuso's demanding regime in Italy, and Allan would provide an aggressive option in the centre of midfield at Goodison Park.
