Former Everton forward Gerard Deulofeu faces an uncertain future.
Just months after leaving Everton, Gerard Deulofeu is being lined up for another move.
Spanish newspaper AS report the Barcelona forward is wanted by Napoli for a January loan move.
Deulofeu had a mixed spell at Everton under Roberto Martinez and Ronald Koeman, before Barcelona invoked their by back clause this summer.
This season has not gone to plan for Deulofeu at the Camp Nou, even with the injury suffered to new club record signing Ousmane Dembele.
The 25-year-old has made only five starts in La Liga, the last of which came back in October.
Napoli manager Maurizio Sarri reportedly is keen on the forward, who had a spell on loan with AC Milan at the end of last season.
Deulofeu’s time at Everton may have run out, but a return to Barcelona always seemed like a poor fit for a player who never ascended to the heights he aspires.
If Barcelona give up on him in January, then he will have no option surely then to seek a permanent exit next summer.
