Napoli consider move for Abel Hernandez

Hull City striker Abel Hernandez is attracting interest from Serie A side Napoli, reports suggest.

The 24-year-old was the Tigers' record signing when he moved to the KC Stadium for £10m last summer, but he endured a miserable first season in the Premier League, scoring just four goals.

However, his form has not deterred Napoli, who want Hernandez as a back-up for Gonzalo Higuain, according to TuttoMercatoWeb.

Hernandez, who has 18 caps for Uruguay, scored 14 goals in 28 league games for Palermo during the 2013-14 season before joining the Premier League side.
