Napoli 'to make improved Fabinho offer'

Serie A side Napoli are reportedly considering an improved bid for AS Monaco defender Fabinho.

The Brazilian, who has previously played for Real Madrid, was thought to be the subject of a €10m (£7.9m) bid from Gli Azzurri, which was turned down by the Ligue 1 outfit.

However, RMC claims that Napoli will make an improved €13m (£10m) offer for the player, their third bid this summer.

Les Rouges et Blanc are said to be holding out for nearer €20m (£15.4m) for the Brazilian international, who is also attracting interest from Atletico Madrid.

Fabinho spent two seasons on loan at Monaco before making a permanent switch in 2015.
