Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko is ready to sign permanently with Napoli.
Gazzetta dello Sport says Bakayoko and Napoli management are already in talks about an outright deal for the France international.
The midfielder has quickly impressed for Napoli since joining on-loan at the start of the season and club chiefs are eager to hold onto him long-term.
Currently in Naples on a straight loan, Bakayoko is available from Chelsea for an outright sale.
And it's suggested Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis is prepared to pay €18m to buy the France international.
