AC Milan are thinking about permanently signing Aster Vranckx from Wolfsburg but a rival are also monitoring his situation, a report claims.

TMW report that despite the limited playing time he has had so far this season, Vranckx has so far impressed Milan who have been evaluating the best strategy to try and buy him on a permanent deal from Wolfsburg.

However, Napoli have also set their sights on the 20-year-old midfielder and would like to try and sign the Belgium U21 captain – who is on the fringes of the first team – in view of next season.

The Partenopei are apparently even willing to pay the €12m option to buy figure that was agreed with Milan as part of his loan deal, because they believe that he would be a good fit for Luciano Spalletti’s midfield in addition to having the potential to become a top player in the future.
