Pepe Reina
The future of Napoli goalkeeper Pepe Reina will be decided today or at the start of next week, according to Tuttomercatoweb.com.
It has been reported that a decision over the future of Reina will be made either today or in the beginning of next week.
Napoli can no longer wait and want to clear the situation regarding the former Liverpool star, according to the report.
Pepe Reina and Rafael Benitez
The Italian club want to know what the Spaniard wants to do in order to plan their goalkeeping situation for the 2017-18 campaign, claims the report.
Reina has been on the books of Napoli since 2015 and has a contract with the Serie A outfit until June 2018, according to Transfermarkt.co.uk.
Newcastle United should be keeping an eye on this developing situation. According to The Chronicle, the Magpies are interested in signing Reina.
Rafael Benitez worked with the 34-year-old at Liverpool, and the Newcastle manager knows all about him.
It could be hard to convince Reina to make the switch to St. James’ Park, though. Even if the former Barcelona goalkeeper leaves Napoli in the summer transfer window, he may not be willing to join a team who have just returned to the Premier League and could look to move to a team who will feature in the Champions League next season.
