Behrami - NapoliInter want to sign Napoli pair Valon Behrami and Juan Camilo Zuniga as they look to strengthen their midfield.

Coach Walter Mazzarri wants to raid his former club further after bringing defender Hugo Campagnaro north with him to the San Siro last summer.

Sky Sport 24 claims that this is not just in the form of Swiss midfielder Behrami, who it is rumoured is all but certain to move to the Nerazzurri, but also in Colombian international Zuniga.

Any deal for Zuniga though would be difficult and costly after the 28-year-old only signed a new five-year contract at the Stadio San Paolo last October, with a reported €35 million release clause, a figure likely to be well out of range for Inter.

The winger has hardly featured for Napoli since signing his new contract after suffering from a long-term knee injury that coach Rafa Benitez claims is “a mystery”.

Former West Ham and Lazio man Behrami though has featured 33 times for the Partenopei this season, but may now find opportunities harder to come by with the January signing of Jorginho and the persistent rumours linking Javier Mascherano and Sandro with moves to Naples.
