In fact, an agreement between Napoli and Patricia has existed for quite some time, with the club offering him €2m per year on a four-year basis. 

 

Sporting Lissabon, on the other hand, are asking for €35m for their goalkeeper, which is considered too much by Napoli, as they don't intend to go beyond €18m. Their president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, is currently negotiating with Sporting to find agreement, although it looks like it will tough. The player's will to join Napoli could play a huge part in the negotiations, allowing the Italians to lower the price tag set by Sporting. 

 

Napoli are also believed to be interested in German goalkeeper Leno.
