Agent: 'Lorenzo Insigne flattered by Arsenal interest'

The agent of Napoli striker Lorenzo Insigne admits that interest from Arsenal is flattering.

The agent of Napoli striker Lorenzo Insigne has admitted that being linked to Premier League side Arsenal is flattering for the player, but said that there have been no talks as yet.

Antonio Ottaiano said that Insigne feels as though he is a key player at Napoli and is more than happy to continue to try to take the club to the next level if Arsenal decide not to bid.

"We take into account the praising reports that Arsene Wenger has given about the player," Ottaiano told Tuttomercatoweb.com. "We are honoured that a club like Arsenal could have Lorenzo on their wish list.

"However, from here to take it to the next level, that is a possible transfer, there is a huge mountain in between named Napoli. The club consider him without a shadow of a doubt as one of their cardinal players for their ambitious project.

"Hence, as of today, I don't see that there can be any further developments unless Arsenal speak to Napoli directly and Napoli change their view on Lorenzo's role here."

Insigne has been capped five times by Italy.
