Earlier on Tuesday, we covered the latest on Napoli’s attempts to try and sign Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Max Kilman.

The defender has become the Serie A side’s number one target to replace Kim Min-jae, who will sign for Bayern Munich in the near future, and a first bid of €35m was made, only for Wolves to reject it.

The article earlier stated that Napoli were continuing their negotiations with the Premier League side to try and get a deal done, and Calciomercato bring a bit more to that this afternoon.

Wolves still ‘don’t want to let him leave’ for less than €40m, as they no longer have issues with their finances following the sale of Ruben Neves to Al-Hilal, and the recent sale of Nathan Collins to Brentford.

Therefore, losing both their centre-backs isn’t seen as the greatest move, but that isn’t going to put Napoli off trying to convince Kilman.

The Serie A side have ‘already spoken to the player’s entourage’ and are ready to help him take ‘a step forward’ in the economic sense.

They are offering him €2.5-3m/year and the chance to play in the Champions League, which is a big improvement on the €1.8m he is currently earning at Molineux.

In fact, the belief is he ‘would be convinced without too much difficulty’, and the hardest part will be getting Wolves to agree to a deal.
