# Chelsea told that £45 million not enough for Insigne

Lorenzo Insigne’s agent has claimed his client is fully focused with Napoli, despite interest from Premier League champions Chelsea, according to [talkSPORT](https://talksport.com/football/chelsea-fc-transfer-news-lorenzo-insignes-agent-insists-ps45million-will-not-be-enough-sign).

The 5ft 4’ winger impressed for Napoli in Serie A during the campaign, scoring 18 goals and registering nine assists in 37 appearances.

Reports have suggested that Chelsea have placed a £45 million bid for the Italian as Antonio Conte looks forward to a first season in the Champions League with Chelsea.

Insigne’s agent claimed that the rumoured £45 million offer “would be low.” Franco della Monica added: “The priority for Lorenzo, though, is to be wearing the Napoli shirt and be rewarded in an important way by his team.”

The Italy international signed a new deal with Napoli in April keeping him at the Serie A club until June 2022. Speaking about the new deal, the winger said: “I’m happy my childhood dream has finally come true.”
