Napoli is in direct negotiations with Chelsea regarding a potential transfer for Benoît Badiashile. The 25-year-old Frenchman could become the latest center-back to depart Stamford Bridge this summer. Trevoh Chalobah has already been sold to Como, while Chelsea has simultaneously acquired Maxence Lacroix from Crystal Palace.

According to Sky Sports, Xabi Alonso plans to rely on Levi Colwill, Tosin Adarabioyo, Wesley Fofana, and Maxence Lacroix, indicating Badiashile is not part of the Spanish manager's plans. It remains unclear whether Axel Disasi, Malang Sarr, and Aaron Anselmino will also leave this summer.

Badiashile himself has already agreed to personal terms with Napoli. Per Gazzetta dello Sport, the two clubs are discussing a loan deal worth three million euros, with an option to buy for 15 million. However, the London club is pushing for this option to be mandatory.
