Napoli are determined to sign Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund if Manchester United don’t lower Alejandro Garnacho’s price tag, but according to Corriere dello Sport, the Partenopei have also resumed talks with Patrick Dorgu’s agent.
Napoli remain on the lookout for a new winger to replace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, but the latest updates from Italy and the UK suggest that Antonio Conte’s favourite target, Garnacho, won’t move to the Stadio Maradona.

Manchester United, in fact, are unwilling to lower their asking price – at least €70m – so Napoli have been talking to Borussia Dortmund for Adeyemi, who is much more affordable at circa €45m.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Napoli remain interested in Lecce wing-back Dorgu as well.
The Denmark international is a potential replacement for Garnacho at Manchester United, but Napoli director Giovanni Manna has called his agent to insist that the Serie A giants remain interested in a summer move.
Garnacho could still leave Manchester United this month as Chelsea are expected to send a bid for the Argentinean.
