According to Sky Sport's Francesco Modugno, a meeting between Zielinski's agents and Napoli Sporting Director Giuntoli took place at Castel Volturno to work on the decisive details. There is optimism, but there is no meeting of the minds on certain points like the contract release clause, which is fixed at 65 million euros. This are normal and resolvable issues for Napoli, who are ready to make a commitment to Zielinski.
Another Napoli objective is Fabian Ruiz, who blocked a move last January for 17 million euros based on tactical reasons, as they wanted a winger. In the end, Napoli signed Ruiz in June, as Ancelotti preferred him over Cristante.
