Napoli are showing a keen interest in Bournemouth defender Nathan Ake.

The versatile centre-back, who can also play in defensive midfield, is emerging as a target for Carlo Ancelotti's team.

The Mirror says the 24-year-old Dutchman is seen as a replacement for Raul Albiol at the Naples outfit.

Bournemouth are not keen to sell and have put a £36 million price tag on the player.

The source reports that Ancelotti is very keen on Ake, who he rates highly because of his versatility and ability to play out from defence.

It is unclear if the player would be open to the move.
