Aaron Hickey 'wanted' by Napoli as Serie A giant join transfer chase for Scotland cap

Serie A giant Napoli are the latest side to make their move for Scotland star Aaron Hickey.

The Naples outfit are keen to sign the talented young left-back, according to reports.

Claims suggest that negotiations have already been opened between Hickey's current club Bologna - who want an £18million transfer fee - and Napoli.

The Serie A big hitter join a list of interested clubs including fellow Italians AC Milan, Juventus, Fiorentina as well as English Premier League clubs Newcastle United and Brentford.

However Napoli are already making their move, with owner Aurelio De Laurentiis reportedly holding talks with Bologna's sporting director Riccardo Bigon.

The Scottish youngster made the move to Italy back in 2020 after Hearts sold him to Bologna for £1.5million.

Despite his first season at the club being cut short by injury, the left-back has appeared 32 this season and has been deemed "flourishing" by the Serie A side.

Hickey won his first Scotland cap earlier this year, making his international debut on March 24 in a 1-1 draw with Poland.
