Chievo striker Sergio Pellissier has revealed he would have considered moving to Napoli had an offer they made earlier this summer been accepted.
The 30-year-old, who recently scored on his debut for Italy, is coming off an excellent season in Serie A.
A hat-trick against Juventus in Turin is the highlight of a campaign that saw him score 13 goals in 28 starts.
Late last month, it was reported that Napoli had made a £10m bid for Pellissier, who is held in high regard by Roberto Donadoni.
“Chievo told me that the offer Napoli presented them with is not the same amount as that published in the papers,” Pellissier said.
He then expressed his disappointment with the Press for saying he had absolutely no interest in joining Napoli after nine years with Chievo.
“It bothered me a lot to read that the possibility of going to Napoli did not fascinate me,” Pellissier explained.
“It's not like this. I said that it would make me happy to know Chievo's intentions. I am not the one who doesn't want to go to Napoli for sure.
“I don't have a problem moving, the true problem is that Napoli are perhaps not doing everything necessary to get me.
“I respect the wishes of my President. If they have to sell a player like me, who scores some goals every now and again, they obviously want to get the right money to buy another striker.
“At the moment, Napoli have not made the right offer. I am not the one renouncing the chance to join Napoli.
“These are problems that don't just regard me. Up until now I have not been able to decide, but if one day an offer from Napoli were to be right I would accept it willingly,” he concluded.
