Min-jae has other suitors in the Premier League but Manchester United are one to have shown the ‘greatest interest’ to acquire his signature.
The report focuses on the future of the 26-year-old and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The latter is set to sign a new deal with the Serie A side while the centre-back is on his way out of the club.
Erik ten Hag’s side ‘will exercise’ his €60m release clause, valid between July 1st and July 15th. With the South Korea international expected to be heading towards Old Trafford, Napoli have to find his successor in the market.

“Kim’s story at Napoli is over, the footballer, after a year in blue, is ready to fly to England with destination Manchester United. The clause was a great operation by the prosecutors,” he said.
