Serie A's top two teams are chasing Manchester United fullback Matteo Darmian for the summer market.

Darmian, 28, has managed just the four Premier League appearances this season and is spying a return to Italy.

Sky Italia says Juventus and Napoli are targeting Darmian for a summer deal.

And it's suggested Napoli have edged in front in the race for the defender's signature, having already made contact with the player's representatives.

For his part, Darmian has never shut the door publicly on returning to Serie A for next season.
