Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has reportedly taken to personally conducting transfer negotiations for Darwin Nunez as the Italian champions look to seal a deal.
Nunez joined Liverpool in a £85million club record transfer three years ago but he appears ready to leave after taking on a bit-part role under Arne Slot.
The 25-year-old bagged five goals and three assists in the Premier League last season as Liverpool romped to victory but only started on eight occasions.
He appears likely to move on from Anfield this summer and Napoli, Atletico Madrid and Al-Hilal have all turned their attention to the Uruguayan.
