PSG forward could make Napoli return

Paris Saint-Germain forward Ezequiel Lavezzi could make a sensational return to former club Napoli.

France’s Ligue 1 champions are looking to sell the player in order to free up funds and comply with Financial Fair Play restrictions.

The Argentina international favours a return to former side Napoli, with coach Rafael Benitez poised to make a move, according to Tuttosport.

The Partenopei are in the market for an attacking player after Lorenzo Insigne was ruled out for six months with a cruciate ligament injury.

Serie A rivals Inter have also expressed an interest in the World Cup star, but face a losing battle as Napoli are reported to be the ideal destination for the player.

Lavezzi was instrumental in winning Napoli the 2012 Coppa Italia in his final season with the club.
