Italian media reports have indicated that Napoli has shown significant interest in signing Serbian star Sergej Milinković-Savić, a player for Al Hilal, whose contract ends next June.

The Italian team hopes to take advantage of the player's contractual situation, as the deal would be free if he does not reach a new agreement with Al Hilal, which makes Napoli prioritize him to strengthen their midfield.

On the other hand, Al Hilal is racing against time to convince Savic to extend his contract, especially since the player is considered one of the key elements of the team since his arrival, and it would be difficult to replace him if he leaves for free.

The Serbian star has played 98 matches with Al Hilal so far, during which he scored 29 goals and provided 25 assists, confirming his significant technical value and clear impact on the team's performance.

Al Hilal's management sees Savic's continuation as a necessary step to maintain the stability and technical balance of the squad, especially amid strong competition locally and continentally during the current season.
