Jackson Martinez agent reveals Napoli striker close to Napoli move

FC Porto striker Jackson Martinez's agent has revealed that his client has agreed personal terms with Napoli but the Serie A club has to meet his buy out price. 

The 26 year old , who has been phenomenal for the Portuguese side last season netting 26 times in 30 appearances, has seen his stocks rise this transfer window with a host of top European clubs believed to be chasing his signature.


Napoli manager Rafael Benitez has been provided with a big transfer kitty as he aims to reshape the squad following Edinson Cavani's departure. Gonzalo Higuain and Raul Albiol from Real Madrid and Dries Mertens from PSV have already signed up for the Naples side.


The striker's agent Manuel Manzo told Sky Sport Italia: "There's an agreement with the player, but we're missing one with Porto and the club don't want to sell him.


"The only way it could happen in my opinion is that they pay the 40million euro release clause, otherwise he won't leave."
