Porto's Hector Herrera is currently on Jurgen Klopp's wishlist, although calciomercato.it have revealed the 26-year-old has agreed personal terms with Serie A's Napoli. "? The Mexican holding midfielder is currently on duty with Mexico in the Copa America, but Napoli and Porto have been trying to finalise a deal in the past couple of weeks.
Last season the Mexican scored nine goals and assisted four in the Primeira Liga and is a key player in the Mexican national squad, with the team progressing to the quarter-final of the Copa America on Sunday. "? Porto are demanding a fee in the region of €25m (£20m plus add-ons) for the holding midfielder, while his former club Pachuca would also receive 30% of the transfer.
Reports say that Napoli are not interested in signing Herrera if the price is too high, although it is suggested that the Italian outfit have offered €15m plus add-ons for the player, while personal terms have been reportedly agreed that would see the Mexican sign for five years, earning a sum of €1.8m a year.
"? Reports claim Liverpool may attempt to rival Napoli having already beaten them to another central midfielder - Piotr Zielinski, according to reports. Napoli's owner has already expressed his frustration that the Polish international has preferred a move to Anfield over a move to Naples. "? If Napoli acquire the Mexican signature, he would be competing for a place in the starting XI alongside Jorginho, David Lopez and Allan. After securing a place in next season's Champions League, manager Maurizio Sarri hopes that the addition of Herrera to his squad, will enable them to compete for the Serie A title.
