Fabrizio Romano has reported on Twitter that Manchester United want €1 million (£840,369.70) as loan fee for Napoli target Axel Tuanzebe, who is on loan at Aston Villa at the moment.
The well-known and well-respected journalist has said that Napoli are offering €400,000 (£336,147.88) as loan fee for Manchester United defender Tuanzebe.
The defender himself wants to move to Napoli, and Villa are now waiting to see what happens, according to Romano.
Axel Tuanzebe transfer update
Aston Villa exit inevitable?
In our opinion, it is almost inevitable that Tuanzebe will leave Manchester United for Napoli on loan in the January transfer window.
Napoli are clearly keen on the 24-year-old, and talks between the Italian club and United suggest that it could be only a matter of time before Tuanzebe moves to the Serie A outfit.
It seems that there is nothing that Villa can do.
Villa manager Steven Gerrard wants to keep Tuanzebe, but if the player is willing to move to Napoli, then there is nothing much that he can do.
The Manchester United-owned defender has made six starts and three substitute appearances in the Premier League for Villa so far this season.
The Villa no. 16 has played twice in the Carabao Cup campaign this campaign.
