Genoa midfielder Houssine Kharja is close to a move to Napoli.

Corriere dello Sport says Kharja is on the brink of completing a switch to the Azzurri.

Only a few details are what's holding back a formal announcement confirming the deal.

If Kharja does arrive at the San Paolo he will become Napoli's second piece of business in the space of a few weeks.

Earlier this month, Aurelio De Laurentiis agreed to sign Estudiantes centre-back Federico Fernandez, although he will only join the club at the end of the season.
