Napoli have resumed their interest in Girona’s Miguel Gutierrez and are ready to offer €20m for the 24-year-old.

Napoli are interested in Girona left-back Miguel Gutierrez, as I already reported on May 15.

Sources with direct knowledge of the matter tell me that the Partenopei’s interest in the versatile Spanish left-back could become concrete in the coming hours, with the defending Serie A champions ready to bid €20m.

Miguel Gutierrez can play as a left-back or as a left-winger, so it remains to be seen whether Napoli will pursue another attacking winger if they end up signing the Girona player.

Napoli may change transfer strategy

The Partenopei refused to enter a bidding war with Nottingham Forest for Dan Ndoye, so the Swiss winger is now heading to the Premier League.

If Napoli sign Miguel Gutierrez and save money for a new winger, they would have more budget to buy a new central midfielder with Fabio Miretti (Juventus) and Giovanni Fabbian (Bologna) on the Partenopei’s agenda.
