Napoli: idea Balotelli. Inter: eyes on Saint-Maximin
Napoli 27-year-old forward Gonzalo Higuain seems to be particularly nervous in this period: according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Argentina international is no more happy in Italy and would like to play in a more competitive league than the Serie A; according to the Daily Express, both Arsenal and Liverpool are interested in the former Real Madrid player. The Gunners may need to replace 29-year-old Lukas Podolski, who could move to Italy where he is tracked by both Juventus and Inter Milan, while The Reds could decide to yield their new forward Mario Balotelli, who is having many difficulties with his new ambiance; for this reason, there are some rumors regarding a possible swap between the azzurri and the English club involving the former AC Milan player and Higuain himself; perhaps, as outlined by calciomercato.com, the 24-year-old has spent the last week end in Naples with his daughter and his former girl-friend. Finally, as reported by L'Equipe, Marseille are about to sign Queens Park Rangers 29-year-old midfielder Lassana Diarra, tracked by the Campania's club during the last transfer window. Inter Milan are working to reinforce their team's flank, and, as outlined by calciomercato.com, tonight's game against Saint-Etienne could be the chance to start a negotiation with Les Verts about 17-year-old Allan Saint-Maximin: the French club's president Bernard Caiazzo has revealed to Eurosport to have refused Arsenal, Juventus and AC Milan's offers for the young player during the last transfer window.
