Liverpool Did Approach Napoli About Ezequiel Lavezzi - Agent


While Napoli striker Ezequiel Lavezzi has shown signs of discontent in the last few months of the season, his future remains very much uncertain. Recent rumours linked him with a move to Liverpool, but this was quickly denied by Reds coach Rafael Benitez.


Nevertheless, today his agent Alejandro Mazzoni claimed that the English club have spoken with Napoli director Pierpaolo Marino about the player, and he also said Lavezzi now wants to stay at the club.

"Lavezzi wants to stay at Napoli, but Marino has to maintain his promises," Mazzoni said to Sky Sport 24.

"I've read Benitez's words, but I'm sure that the English club spoke with Marino in the past few days. In football it's not necessary to make offers official. In any case, nothing has changed, the key issue is that Marino promised Lavezzi an improved contract over the last few months.

"Lavezzi has said several times that his desire is to stay in Naples."
