Italian side Napoli should be prepared for several major bids for support striker Ezequiel Lavezzi during the January transfer window.

Manchester United and Chelsea were reportedly already interested in the 23-year-old, but the two English giants are now joined by Real Madrid who are willing to spend 40 million Euros on the player, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

So far, Real Madrid attracted Klaas Jan Huntelaar and Lassana Diarra but the Spaniards may be looking for a player that could connect Madrid’s midfield with its attackers.

The young Argentinian joined Napoli from San Lorenzo de Almagro in the 2007. This season, he scored four goals in 13 appearances.
