Palermo President Maurizio Zamparini says he 'hopes’ to sell 'new Messi’ Paulo Dybala to Napoli.
The Argentinian striker has been the subject of interest from a number of clubs, with Juventus believed to be in pole position for his signature, but the Rosanero patron says the Partenopei are in the hunt too.
“Napoli in for Dybala? It’s true,” Zamparini told Radio Crc.
“[President Aurelio] De Laurentiis spoke to me personally, and it’s likely they’ll improve the team, even without being in the Champions League.
“The Napoli President has called me, I’ll meet him soon, but there’s mutual respect and a deep friendship between us.
“It’s clear that the relationship I have with Aurelio is special, and I hope he can take Dybala, because he’s the new [Lionel] Messi.”
