Napoli push Liverpool to release Mignolet for loan

Napoli are moving for Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet.

HLN says Mignolet's chances of remaining at Liverpool are now 'very small' after the arrival of Alisson and believe new Napoli coach Carlo Ancelotti is now eyeing the goalkeeper.

Summer signing Alex Meret has picked up an injury and the Serie A outfits are now looking for a replacement. They would initially favour a loan deal but are apparently deterred by Liverpool's financial demands.

The Reds would require a loan fee for Mignolet plus Napoli paying the stopper's wages for the duration of the loan.

Turkish giants Besiktas are also said to be interested in the 30-year-old.
