Napoli have agreed a deal to sign Groningen striker Tim Matavz in the summer.

The Serie A outfit had hoped to finalise a deal for the 22-year-old Slovenian in January, but a deal was unable to be completed before Monday’s transfer deadline.

Napoli have now moved to secure a deal for him ready for the end of the season, worth around €7million.

Matavz’s agent Nusret Jashari told Gazzetta dello Sport: “The deal was protracted and it was difficult bureaucratically to define a loan [in January]. But Tim will arrive in June. There is an agreement between the two parties.

“Obviously he is happy. He wanted Napoli. He likes the stadium, the fans and the passion. When it’s possible, he’ll go and see a game.”
