Napoli, the dominant team in Serie A, is trying to bolster their midfield options this month after having a difficult first half to the season.
Napoli is thinking of signing Pierre Emile-Hojbjerg, a talented midfielder for Tottenham, during the winter transfer window.
More options are coming up on Napoli’s radar as they continue to monitor the player market.
Corriere dello Sport, an Italian sports daily, reports (via Tutto Napoli) that Fornals is another player Napoli is considering this month.
With six months remaining on his West Ham contract, the midfield player is expected to go on a free transfer at the end of the current campaign, with interest from Spanish teams.
Napoli is monitoring him closely and trying to find out if West Ham is willing to let him move in January.
With just two Premier League starts this season, Fornals has been a bit part player for West Ham.
Unless West Ham choose to extend the midfielder’s contract, January will probably be their only opportunity to receive a money from his departure.
West Ham United is on the verge of closing the gap to the exclusive top four as the evening drama of the Premier League plays out. They will visit Brighton in what could be an exciting matchup. The
Irons are prepared to repeat their impressive finish from the previous season, when they displayed a brilliant defensive mastery against Arsenal, with huge stakes.
Under the tactical leadership of David Moyes, the Hammers have won three straight games and are galloping ahead. They would be more confident about finishing in the top four with a victory tonight, which would put more pressure on Arsenal, their rivals in North London. This match is especially important because it comes right before West Ham is ready to take a break from their league campaign.
