Everton midfielder Davy Klaassen is reportedly interesting Napoli.

Mason Holgate of Everton guides his wall during the Carabao Cup Third Round match between Everton and Sunderland at Goodison Park on September 20, 2017 in Liverpool, England.

Sky Italy journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has claimed on his website that Everton midfielder Davy Klaassen has agreed terms with Serie A giants Napoli, with only issue left to be resolved.

The 24-year-old is allowed to leave Goodison Park this month after failing to prove his £25million transfer fee that saw him join the Toffees in the summer from Dutch giants Ajax.

Instead, the 16-time Netherlands international has plummeted down the pecking order and Sam Allardyce is more than willing to loan the playmaker out of Merseyside.

Another Italian journalist, Alfredo Pedulla, claimed on his website on Tuesday that Klaassen had been offered to both Napoli and Inter Milan this week, but Maurizio Sarri’s side have seemingly won the race for the midfielder.

Now, Di Marzio has claimed Klaassen has agreed terms to move to Napoli, with only the player’s marketing rights standing in the way of all parties confirming a deal. They are expected to confirm a move before Wednesday’s 11pm deadline.

Klaassen has fallen beneath the likes of Tom Davies, Morgan Schneiderlin and Idrissa Gueye in the Everton pecking order, making 13 appearances in all competitions this season.
