Napoli appear to have beaten Swansea City to the signature of Jonathan de Guzman, with reports indicating that the Serie A side are on the verge of completing a deal for the Netherlands international.
De Guzman has spent the last two seasons on loan at the Liberty Stadium from Villarreal, and there were suggestions that the 26-year-old could return to south Wales on a permanent basis.
However, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Rafael Benitez's side have agreed personal terms with the midfielder and are expected to wrap up a transfer in the region of €6m [£4.8m[.
De Guzman made 71 appearances for Swansea over the course of two seasons, scoring eight goals in the process.
