Exclusive: Chelsea target Insigne's clause could be €200m
In fact, our transfer market insider reports that Mino Raiola taking over the Chelsea target’s brief won’t be a problem for the Partenopei, and will likely make him ever harder to sign.
Also targeted by Liverpool, Insigne was at the centre of a bit of a controversy when Raiola stated in the past that he “had recommended Lorenzo to Barcelona to replace Neymar.”
This hadn’t gone down well with Napoli president De Laurentiis, who replied with a strong “over my dead body!”
And yet, Insigne joining up with Raiola should actually ramp up his release clause to €200 million.
Chelsea had asked after Insigne in the summer, but had been told that there was no way that Maurizio Sarri could take the 27-year-old with him.
Insigne has scored 69 goals for the Azzurri in 268 games in all competitions.
