Chelsea are edging closer to wrapping up a deal for Napoli attacker Jose Callejon, according to reports.
Blues boss Jose Mourinho is keen to bring in reinforcements with Mohamed Salah due to go out on loan, while winger Juan Cuadrado looks set to make a move back to the Serie A.
Callejon has previously been linked with a move to Liverpool, but Daily Express [via Football Italia] reports the £10m-rated former Real Madrid man is set to make a move to the Premier League champions this summer.
The 28-year-old scored 11 goals for Napoli last season in what was a disappointing campaign, with the club missing out on a Champions League spot after finishing in fifth place.
With Rafa Benitez gone, Napoli are expected to make sweeping changes under new boss Maurizio Sarri.
Chelsea have reportedly opened talks with Napoli, and Football Italia claims that a deal is close to being finalised.
