Giovanni Di Lorenzo's agent plays down Manchester United speculation

The agent of Napoli right-back Giovanni Di Lorenzo has dismissed reports linking his client to Manchester United this summer.

Di Lorenzo started five of Italy's seven games at Euro 2020, including last Sunday's final which they won 3-2 on penalties against England at Wembley.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is believed to be tracking the 27-year-old, who could provide more competition for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, but Di Lorenzo's agent Mario Giuffredi is not aware of any interest from the Red Devils.

"Aurelio De Laurentiis spoke at the press conference explaining Napoli's losses, that all his players are transferable and that, if appropriate offers arrive, he will evaluate them himself," Giuffredi told Radio Marte.

"If offers arrive, we are obliged to take them into consideration, also in the interest of Napoli, because it is the president himself who has put everyone on the market.

"But now it is newspaper talk. I read about Manchester United, but now it is newspaper talk. If there were real things, we would be the ones to communicate it to Napoli. At the moment no request has arrived."

Di Lorenzo made 46 appearances across all competitions last season for Napoli, who finished fifth in Serie A, missing out on a place in this season's Champions League.
