Lorenzo Insigne provides a major update on future amid Liverpool interest

Lorenzo Insigne has undoubtedly been one of Napoli's stars over the past few years. Insigne's contract situation continues to be unresolved and the current one by which he is tied to the club will run out only in 3 years. However, recent comments from Insigne suggest that he is looking to get a new deal as he said that an offer could come for him which 'he can't refuse'.

Insigne has been plying his trade at Napoli since he was 15 years of age and has now come out and revealed that he intends on committing his future to the club. Asked about a potential contract renewal, Insigne said,

"Renewal? I'm waiting for the president,"

"For my part there's maximum availability. We both want to move forward together. I hope that the signing of the contract will come soon.

"It was important to be clear about going ahead together. There has been misunderstanding but now there is the desire to continue united."

Liverpool continue to be linked with the 27-year-old despite Jurgen Klopp saying that they won't try to sign Insigne as he has a long-term contract at Napoli.
