Napoli set for Nigel De Jong swoop?

Napoli are preparing to launch a £6m bid for Manchester City midfielder Nigel De Jong, according to reports in Italy.

The Dutchman is believed to be heading for the exit at the Etihad Stadium, with both Arsenal and Queens Park Rangers also said to be interested.

De Jong, who is out of contract the the end of next season, will reportedly sit down with Citizens' chiefs when he returns from the Netherlands' Euro 2012 campaign.

The 27-year-old joined City from Hamburg for £18m in 2009.
