With Manchester United still linked to Kim Min-jae, Napoli seem to be working hard to protect him at the club.
A new story on the defender is now published by Calcio Mercato, who say the Serie A side are working on an ‘anti-Premier League plan’.
This situation is only happening because when signing Kim from Fenerbahce, Napoli included a €50m release clause for foreign clubs.
That’s why Napoli are now in touch with Kim’s agents as they try to extend his contract. They want to give him two more years and remove or raise that clause.
Calcio Mercato writes that Manchester United ‘can be serious’ for the defender in the summer, as the possibility of signing him is ‘far from remote’.
Napoli had already lost Kalidou Koulibaly to Chelsea last year, and could now see Kim move without even having a say in the negotiations, in case the Red Devils show up and trigger the clause. That’s why it’s time to hurry about this new deal.
