C&P:
RANGERS flop Umar Sadiq is the target of a £10million bid from Serie A giants Napoli, according to reports.
The former
Light Blues striker managed just
FOUR games under Steven Gerrard but has attracted multi-million pound interest after performing well for Partizan Belgrade.
Serbian sports website
Mozzart Sport claims Napoli have tabled an offer for the Nigerian forward.
But the deal could be held up due to complications over his current club.
Sadiq has become a regular for Belgrade this season after making a loan move from Roma for around £85,000.
Partizan also included a future fee of a reported £1.5m at the conclusion of his loan deal.
While the Serbina side have the right to purchase Sadiq at the end of his temporary switch, Roma could oppose the then sale to Napoli.
Reports claim Roma will instead demand £5m from Partizan for the player if he is to be sold on to Napoli for £10m in the same window.
This is not the first time Roma have had this issue over a transfer.
In 2018 they complained over Nemanja Radonjic's sale from Red Star Belgrade to Marseille.
Roma insisted on a £1.75m fee before that deal go through, and this could be the same with Sadiq.
Partizan are also in no rush to sell Sadiq on after they banked £8.5m for their star defender Strahinja Pavlovic.
Napoli are on the look-out for a striker who can play deputy to lethal hitman Dries Mertens.
