Lazio coach Edy Reja is searching for players to improve his squad and the former Napoli coach is keen to get Partenopei defender Paolo Cannavaro.
The 68-year-old tactician has returned to the Biancocelesti bench after Bosnian-Swiss coach Vladimir Petkovic was sacked during the Serie A winter break and he wants to improve the defence.
According to Il Mattino, two defenders could be leaving Napoli in the winter transfer window. Cannavaro is expected to be one of them and the other player is likely to be Colombian full-back Pablo Armero.
Bringing Cannavaro to Lazio would reunite Reja with his former captain during his time as Napoli coach but it is unclear where Armero will be heading yet.
Reja previously coached Lazio from February 2010 until May 2012 and in his first stint as Biancocelesti coach, the highest finish the Aquile had achieved was fourth place in 2011-2012, just missing out on qualification for the Champions League.
