Naples wants to take advantage of the crisis in Lyon
According to transalpine source Area Napoli, the current Serie A leader is one of the 21-year-old Frenchman's courtiers. Naples hopes to take advantage of Olympique Lyonnais' financial crisis to recruit the attacking midfielder this winter. While the owner of the Rhone club John Textor announced that no Gone would be sold off, Naples intends to negotiate the best possible deal for the young talent considered as a potential successor to Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

Since the loss of its former top scorer, Paris Saint-Germain has not strengthened its offensive sector which lacked efficiency in the Champions League.
