Napoli are continuing to explore the international market for players who could strengthen their squad, with Flamengo winger Samuel Lino among those attracting interest.
The 26-year-old Brazilian has also drawn attention from several other clubs, but any attempt to sign him from the Rio de Janeiro side is likely to prove difficult after Flamengo rejected an initial offer of €25 million.
Swiss website 4-4-2.ch reports that Flamengo regard Lino as a key part of their project and are not currently prepared to let him leave. The club’s stance is expected to make any potential negotiations particularly challenging.
Lino’s contract with Flamengo runs until the end of 2029, further strengthening the Brazilian club’s position in discussions over his future.
