Chelsea set to sign Hysaj in the summer

Hysaj in action for Napoli

Maurizio Sarri is all set to bring one more top player from Napoli to Stamford Bridge. The Italian has been given the green light to sign the 24-year-old.

Elseid Hysaj has been tipped for a move by Napoli-based journalist Cammaroto who told Napoli Magazine, (via Express)

"Hysaj is on the way out,"

"Ancelotti is ready to let him leave, and Aurelio de Laurentiis didn’t appreciate the take it or leave it offer on the contract, as the renewal terms were too high.

"The goodbye is already on the agenda, the Albanian will go to his mentor Sarri. All that’s left is to know if it’ll happen in June or January.

"The potential summer ban for Chelsea could make the negotiations start suddenly, but Napoli want the €50m from the clause and not a penny less.

Hysaj's agent has also done little to squash the speculation and has talked about interest from multiple clubs. The same report adds that Hysaj's agent told Radio CRC,

Chelsea in for Hysaj? If you see Napoli are playing Malcuit and looking at other players, clearly it means that there are also enquiries.

“Those who say otherwise are misinformed.

“Hysaj is a player who can do well in English football, given he’s very physical and being watched by big clubs.

“Is he worth €50m? He’s worth €60m for me.”

It looks like the deal could very well go over the line in January.
