Despite their focus on finishing the season on a high note, Napoli and Milan have begun to think about their squads for the 2023-24 season.
Both the Serie A leaders and the last 'Scudetto' champions are looking to invest in one of Germany's best youth players. Udinese's Lazar Samardzic is on the radar of both clubs, according to 'La Gazzetta dello Sport'.
Stefano Pioli's side are not willing to spend 30 million euros on a player who has yet to break through, while the Neapolitans are keen to find a replacement for Piotr Zielinski.
With just a few fixtures left in the domestic competition, the two teams are still waiting to see where they will finish, as it will depend on whether or not they qualify for an international tournament.
