Ayoze Perez agent speaks out on Napoli move

The agent of Leicester City winger Ayoze Perez has spoken out on the Spaniard's future at the club, amidst rumours linking him away from the Foxes.

The 28-year-old, who joined the Midlands outfit from Newcastle United in 2019, has made three Premier League appearances for Leicester this season, but missed their recent defeat to Manchester City through suspension, after he was shown a red card in their 4-1 loss to West Ham United prior to the international break.

Despite rumours linking the Spaniard to a move in the summer, with the likes of Napoli and Everton said to be interested, he remained at Brendan Rodgers's side when the window slammed shut.

However, agent Olaf Bonales Ferrera has not ruled out a future move to the Italian top flight, after long-running rumours dating back to the Spaniard's time at Newcastle United.

Speaking to Napoli Magazine, he said: "He really likes Napoli and Italian football, but Leicester is a great option for him right now. For now, he has another two years of contract, we don't know the future: he's 28 years old, when he will be 30 he'd be free and it would certainly not be a problem for the Italian league."

Perez's next appearance for the Foxes could indeed come against Napoli, as the sides meet in Europa League action on Thursday at the King Power Stadium.
