Napoli open talks with Chelsea and Kepa about Serie A switch

Napoli are seeking a deal for Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.

AS says Napoli have approached Chelsea and Kepa's minders as they are eager to secure a deal before the window closes.

However, negotiations over a potential deal ahead of the 2022-2023 campaign have not started yet.

A departure from Stamford Bridge could be in Kepa's best interest as he has struggled for first-team minutes - having only featured 11 times in the Premier League across the last two seasons.

Given Kepa's ambition to be part of Spain coach Luis Enrique's plans for the World Cup in Qatar this winter, he will need to secure more regular game-time at the beginning of next season.
