Gonzalo Higuain NapoliSerie A side Napoli may struggle to hang on to some of their star players should they fail to beat Lazio on the last weekend of the season.

On Sunday, the Partenopei host Stefano Pioli’s side in what has effectively become a Champions League playoff with an Azzurri victory ensuring them third place in the league and entry into Europe’s premier cup competition. Any other result would hand that spot to the Biancocelesti, leaving Napoli to play the Europa League next season.

According to Il Corriere del Mezzogiorno, the futures of Gonzalo Higuain and Jose Callejon may now hinge on the San Paolo outfit finishing in the top three, with the report suggesting both players will look to move on should Napoli fail to win at the weekend.

Higuain has many suitors, especially in the English Premier League with Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea all showing an interest, whilst Spaniard Callejon would also not have a problem finding a new club should he decide on a change of scenery.
