With Dries Mertens<\/a> potentially heading out the exit door in the summer, Napoli will want to be swift in their search for a replacement. Meanwhile, with West Ham United<\/a> enduring a constant threat of relegation, a move for Felipe Anderson<\/a> could be on the cards.<\/p>\n

REPORT: Napoli Interested in Felipe Anderson<\/h2>\n

Napoli Keen to Land West Ham Winger<\/h3>\n

The Daily Mail,<\/a> along with Corriere Dello Sport,<\/a> have recently reported Napoli’s interest in the 26-year-old West Ham winger. The move itself would prove practical for Napoli who would be buying an experienced Serie A winger in Felipe Anderson. The Brazilian played for Lazio in the Serie A for five years before opting to join the Hammers for a fee of \u00a336 million.<\/p>\n

Anderson could even come at a cut price for Napoli, who face the possibility of buying from a Championship club in the summer with West Ham only out of the relegation zone on goal difference. A West Ham relegation would likely signal a mass exodus of top players, including Anderson. This makes a deal even more attractive for Napoli and Gennaro Gattuso<\/a> who could potentially get themselves one of the bargains of the summer.<\/p>\n

Perfect Move for the Brazilian?<\/h3>\n

And the move would also make perfect sense for Felipe Anderson, who may see a move back to Italy as the perfect chance to get his career back on track. The West Ham winger has scored just one goal in the Premier League<\/a> this season, highlighting just how far the Brazilian has fallen in recent years and how much a change of scenery is needed.<\/p>\n

It is clear that a deal of Felipe Anderson to Napoli is a real possibility in the summer with the Italian side looking to replace players likely to depart with Anderson, who may feel as though a return to Italy will signal a return to his best form that we saw in the Serie A<\/a> with Lazio.<\/p>\n
