Konstantinos Mavropanos in talks with Napoli, amid Wolves interest
Wolves target Konstantinos Mavropanos is reportedly now in talks with Napoli over a potential move.
In recent days, there have been reports that Wanderers have been keeping tabs on the Greece international.
Julen Lopetegui, of course, has a centre-back shortage at the momen

Konstantinos Mavropanos in talks with Napoli, amid Wolves interest
It was reported yesterday that Mavropanos was keen to leave Stuttgart this summer.
According to Kicker, it’s not Wolves who are in for him, but Serie A champions Napoli.
Napoli lost Kim-min Jae to Bayern Munich earlier this month and have been after a replacement.
Their search has led them to Mavropanos, which may come as a blow to Wolves.
