Napoli in advanced talks to bring PSV Eindhoven star Hirving Lozano
It’s been a transfer window full of surprises, and Napoli could be set to carry on this trend.
Napoli are in advanced talks to bring PSV Eindhoven winger Hirving Lozano, according to the football transfer rumours in Italian media.
The 24-year-old has been subject to interest from various European clubs.
The Mexico international only joined PSV Eindhoven from Pachuca in 2017 for 8 million euros and his contract runs to June 2023.
In total, Lozano has scored 40 goals and supplied 23 assists from 77 PSV Eindhoven matches.
He’s incredibly experienced for a 24-year-old and still has tons of room for growth.
His record for Mexico is also impressive. Lozano has scored 9 goals in 35 matches for Mexico at senior level.
Carlo Ancelotti is looking to shore up his attacking options and PSV Eindhoven’s Hirving Lozano happens to be a target.
The Mexico international is thought to perfectly fit the profile of winger Ancelotti wants to target in the summer transfer window.
Napoli are desperate to make an impact in the summer transfer window.
According to Football Italia, “Napoli are diving back into negotiations for Hirving ‘Chucky’ Lozano after PSV Eindhoven crashed out of the Champions League. The Dutch side fell to pieces during a 2-1 defeat to FC Basel this evening, going out on away goals, 4-4 on aggregate. It’s only the second qualifying round of the Champions League and a huge blow for PSV, who are now more likely to sell their Mexican star player. There were already rumours this morning that Napoli were going to resume talks for Lozano, who would be available now for around €40m. The Partenopei missed out on Nicolas Pepe, who moved to Arsenal today from Lille, and Real Madrid are unwilling to let James Rodriguez leave on loan.”

PSV Eindhoven would be wise to keep the Mexico international, but if they do let him go expect it to be for a hefty sum.
The 24-year-old would be a very good addition for Napoli and they can afford him as well.
Napoli fans would certainly love to see him arrive at the club this summer.
