Napoli duo Mertens and Callejon warned over possible China move

The attackers have been told not to chase the money as they enter the twilight of their careers

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has warned Dries Mertens and Jose Callejon over leaving the club and taking up reported offers in the Chinese Super League.

The duo have been linked with potentially lucrative moves to Asia with both Mertens and Callejon coming off contract in the Serie A at the end of the season.

With both players now 32, De Laurentiis stressed he won't be offering them more than what they're worth and believes moving to China for the money would be a mistake.
