Napoli are accelerating in their pursuit for Vanja Milinkovic-Savic, despite Leeds United initially looking close to a deal for the Serbian goalkeeper, reports from Italy claim.

According to what has been reported by TuttoMercatoWeb , Napoli have agreed terms with Milinkovic-Savic and are preparing to discuss the fee with Torino.

The Scudetto winners will look to use pre-existing negotiations between the clubs over a deal for Cyril Ngonge as a starting point for their talks over the goalkeeper.

Despite Leeds interest, Napoli intensify Milinkovic-Savic pursuit

Napoli sporting director Giovanni Manna is keen to provide Antonio Conte with reinforcements quickly – as the club have agreed deals for Noa Lang and Sam Beukema. Now, the Neapolitan side will turn their attention to the Torino goalkeeper and Bologna forward Dan Ndoye – starting from tomorrow.

Leeds are reportedly desperate to sign the talented Serbian shot-stopper but the allure of playing for the Italian champions may be too much for the newly-promoted Premier League club to compete with.
