Napoli go hunting for a striker
Twenty million euros. That is roughly what it would take, and Napoli seem willing to have the conversation. The club want more bite up front, and they have picked out Gabriel Jesus as the man to provide it. According to ge.globo, relayed by Fabrizio Romano, Napoli have already opened a line to the Arsenal forward’s camp.
The talks are circling the shape of a possible transfer. One quiet detail might grease the wheels. The Brazilian shares an agency with Massimiliano Allegri, the man in the Napoli dugout.

Arsenal name their terms
The Gunners are not budging on the structure. Permanent deal or nothing. And the number they have floated sits somewhere around 20 million euros as a floor, not a ceiling.
Jesus went through the club’s summer work, yet everything points to his story ending away from north London. With Bruno Guimaraes freshly in the door and a forward line already stacked, the queue for minutes only gets longer.
Where it stands
Nothing is signed. Napoli are watching the situation closely, ears to the ground, but there is no promise any of this lands.
A switch would hand the Brazilian something he has been short of at Arsenal, which is game time and a project built around him. Napoli, in return, would get a striker who already knows what Serie A demands.
Whether the two sides inch closer or let it drift, the coming days will tell their own story.
