According to this morning’s La Gazzetta dello Sport, if Everton want to reignite their interest in Napoli striker Manolo Gabbiadini in January, they will have to find around €30 million.

After his sending off for kicking out in retaliation, the 24-year-old Italian international’s time at the San Paolo looks to be coming to an end. Having already refused the same amount of money in the summer (when the Toffees were one of his main suitors), it seems President Aurelio De Laurentiis will now be prepared to listen to bids in the same region.

It’s been a torrid couple of weeks for the player, who’s failed to fill the void left by injured striker Arek Milik. The paper states that the money collected from any potential deal, will be used to find an alternative replacement. Napoli has already been linked with an approach for Montreal Impact frontman Didier Drogba.  

Milan are considering a move for Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero. Corriere dello Sport claims the rossoneri will be in competition against PSG and Real Madrid to sign the Argentine hit-man.

 

The same journal also concentrates on Arsenal’s reported interest in Roma centre-back Kostas Manolas. The 25-year-old Greek international has yet to sign a new deal in the Eternal City and has also been the subject of interest from Chelsea.


 

Gazzetta dello Sport also states today that former Sporting Lisbon and Olympiacos coach Marco Silva has become the latest name to be linked with replacing Frank de Boer on the bench at Inter.

 

Juventus are considering a move for Real Madrid defender Pepe next summer. Tuttosport states that the Portuguese international will be available on a free-transfer.


 

Kevin Trapp’s imminent departure from PSG has alerted clubs from around Europe including Italy. Sport reveals that Juventus are considering the 26-year-old German goalkeeper as a possible successor to Gigi Buffon.
