Napoli are considering a move for Liverpool winger Federico Chiesa, reports from Italy claim, after the former Juventus player has been considered surplus to requirements by the Premier League champions.
According to what has been reported by the Corriere dello Sport, Napoli had been caught in two minds over whether to pursue a new winger or a full-back.
