The truth about De Bruyne: PSV won't give up and Napoli eye two Monaco stars. Plus attack targets…

PSV pursuing De Bruyne for January, but Napoli insist he is not for sale and plan midfield reinforcements from Monaco instead.

PSV are preparing an offer for Kevin De Bruyne ahead of the January window, though the Manchester City midfielder remains non-committal on his future. Napoli's position is firm: De Bruyne is not on the market and is central to their midfield plans under Allegri, despite his contract expiring in June with no renewal agreement yet in place.

Director Manna is instead focusing on two signings: a midfielder and a striker. Should Anguissa depart when his contract expires in June, Napoli have identified replacements in Ligue 1. Mamadou Coulibaly of Monaco is the preferred target at €40 million, with teammate Lamine Camara, 22, also under consideration.

Both offer youth and physicality as box-to-box options. Darryl Bakola of Sassuolo is another prospect, though facing competition elsewhere.

In attack, Gustavo Varela of Monza remains the primary target after scoring nine league goals this season. Manna has met with Varela's agents and is awaiting Monza's asking price. As an alternative, Napoli are exploring Premier League loan options, including Joshua Zirkzee of Manchester United, who has barely featured under Erik ten Hag this season.
