Napoli are facing down the barrel of selling star striker Edinson Cavani in the summer.
With Champions League qualification now unlikely, Napoli will battle to convince the Uruguay international to stay.
Chelsea, Manchester City and Tottenham are keen to bring Cavani to England next season - and all three clubs expect to qualify for the Champions League.
Cavani is expected to be available for less than ã35 million and his current ã60,000-a-week wages surprisingly makes the centre-forward one of the most affordable top-line strikers available ahead of the summer market.
