Juan Zuniga - NapoliPortuguese giants Porto could be set to help Napoli offload unwanted full-back Juan Camilo Zuniga, although the Serie A club are also considering using the Colombian in a deal for Bologna defender Marios Oikonomou.

After missing out on the Portugese title to bitter rivals Benfica during the last two seasons, Porto are looking to experience to regain domestic dominance.

According to O Jogo, although Atletico Madrid full-back Guilherme Siqueira is also a target, the fact that the 29-year-old is ready to leave the Partenopei with immediate effect could make him their number one target.

Corriere del Mezzohiorno report, however, Napoli sporting director Cristiano Guintoli has held negotiations with Bologna official Pantaleo Corvino to discuss a move for Oikonomou, that could see Zuniga head to the Rossoblu.

A move for the 22-year-old Greek would appear to see the Azzurri calm their interest in Udinese duo Thomas Heurtaux and Silvan Widmer.
