Marc Bartra nears Napoli switch

Barcelona defender Marc Bartra could soon join Italian giants Napoli, Sky Sport Italia has suggested.

It is no secret that the Azzurri are keen on the Spain international, but the Catalans had refused to negotiate a deal until recently.

However, with the talented centre-back reportedly agreeing personal terms with Napoli, Barcelona now seem willing to do business with the Serie A side.

According to Sky Sport Italia, the two clubs should ultimately agree on a transfer fee between €14m and €15m, and it only remains to be seen whether the full price will be paid at once or if some of the money will be tied to performance related bonuses.

Marc Bartra has largely impressed since coming through the youth ranks at Barcelona, but he has been unable to nail down a regular starting berth at Camp Nou.

The 24-year-old only started 11 La Liga fixtures last term, so it is hardly surprising that he wants out.
