Piotr Zielinski Reportedly in Napoli Contract Talks Amid Liverpool Rumours

Napoli midfielder Piotr Zielinski is reportedly in talks with the club over a new contract amid links to Liverpool and Bayern Munich.

According to Neil Fissler of the Sunday Express, the Poland international remains a target for Reds manager Jurgen Klopp, although any hopes of a January deal are likely to be scuppered by an extension at the San Paolo.

In the report it's said Zielinski currently has a release clause of £60 million in his deal, although any fresh set of terms would increase that trigger amount.

"The biggest sticking point appears to be that Napoli want to double the buy out clause that the midfielder has in his current contract," said Fissler, who also credited German champions Bayern with an interest in the Napoli star.
