Ghoulam - NapoliFaouzi Ghoulam could be among a set of Napoli players to depart the Stadio San Paolo, with Chelsea keen on snatching the talented full-back who desires Champions League action.

Following the signing of Mirko Valdifiori and Pepe Reina, the Partenopei will need to offload players to regenerate funds with Raul Albiol and Juan Zuniga the most likely candidates, while Ghoulam would require a more hefty price tag.

According to Eurosport France, Chelsea will enter a tug of war with Arsenal to bring the 24-year-old to the Premier League, and will need to match or better a Gunners offer of €15 million.

After arriving to Napoli in January 2014, Ghoulam has gone on to make 34 appearances with the Azzurri, notching four assists in the process.
