Serie A giants Napoli want to sign Davy Klaassen from Everton, according to Paul Joyce.

The Netherlands international signed for Everton in the summer from Ajax in a deal said to be worth around £25m. However, he has since failed to convince and has struggled to adapt to English football.
Klaassen has made only three starts in the Premier League this season and hasn’t hit the ground running. This has prompted speculation and reports, indicating that he may be set for a move away from the club this month.
However, Toffees boss Sam Allardyce has previously claimed that loan offers have been turned down for Klaassen, with the former England boss keen to keep a full squad together for what promises to be a challenging final stretch of the season.
Napoli are well stocked in midfield, so their interest in Klaassen comes as somewhat surprising. However, if the Dutchman can recapture his form from his days in Holland, he’s certainly a capable player.
