On Friday, TuttoMercatoWeb stated West Ham United are in negotiations with Napoli over a potential deal for Piotr Zieliński.
The Hammers’ interest in the 28-year-old is further backed up by other outlets in Italy on Saturday.
Il Mattino state David Moyes has asked West Ham to sign a new attacking midfielder this summer.
The Napoli player fits the manager’s requirements, and this has seen the Hammers make an approach for Zieliński. They have asked Napoli for information about the Poland international and this is the first step to ‘understand what the next steps could be’.
Luciano Spalletti’s side value their star at €50m. Therefore, an ‘important investment’ is needed from West Ham to fulfil Moyes’ request.
Il Mattino add it is crucial to see whether there will be any movements in the next few days, even though the Pole has stressed he is happy at Napoli.
Over at Corriere del Mezzogiorno, they also state the Premier League side have asked for information about Zieliński after Moyes requested his club sign a new attacking midfielder.
West Ham’s initial approach has made Napoli sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli ‘cautious’ and he has started looking at the market for Zieliński’s potential successor.
