Real Zaragoza are wrapping up a loan deal for Napoli defender Matteo Contini today.
Contini has been at the Stadio San Paolo since the summer of 2007, having joined from Parma for around £2.5m.
"Contini is very close to Zaragoza, the deal should be concluded between today and tomorrow," confirmed director of sport Riccardo Bigon on Radio Marte.
"We will not be bringing in a substitute, because our intent was to cut down the squad a little.
"At the moment we have seven defenders challenging for three places."
