Elseid Hysaj has declared his intention to leave Napoli.

The 25-year-old fullback, who has been linked with Chelsea and Manchester United, has struggled to secure playing time under Carlo Ancelotti.

"I'm absolutely ready for a new challenge because I need change," he said.

"I want to have new experiences, learn about a new country, meet new people, play for another team and maybe try to win something.

"For me, my time at Napoli is over and I hope to find a team that will give me what I need."
