Napoli boss Luciano Spalletti has just got started with his new club but looks like he is already weighing up his transfer plans - after hinting he could sign Chelsea left-back Emerson Palmieri.
The Italian international is firmly out of favour at Stamford Bridge having failed to make a single Premier League start last term, with Ben Chilwell and Marcos Alonso both ahead of him in the pecking order under Thomas Tuchel.
The 26-year-old joined the Blues from Roma in 2018 but has failed to become a first choice player in his three years in the capital, and now he could be set for a reunion with his former boss Spaletti, who coached him in Rome.
