Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko wants to join Napoli on a permanent basis, the player's agent has confirmed.
The Frenchman joined Napoli on his third loan spell since joining Chelsea in 2017.
Bakayoko scored the winning goal - his first for the club - in Sunday's 2-1 win over Udinese, and his agent was quick to talk up his prospects of moving to Naples permanently.
"He is very happy to score his first goal for the club, it's been a long time since he had scored the last one," his brother and agent Abdoulaye told Radio Marte. "The goal has boosted his confidence; he always wants to help the team."
Talks over a move have yet to begin, but Abdoulaye says joining Napoli will be Bakayoko's priority.
"It's too early to talk about that (a permanent move), there are many things that must be considered.
"He is on loan until the end of the season and he hasn't talked to the club yet, but staying at Napoli would be a nice opportunity, so we will see.
"He has played for many clubs, but he is happy at Napoli. The results are there and this club would be an ideal option for the future.
"Napoli are title contenders; a positive ending is in everyone's interest. Napoli will be his priority in June."
