Napoli have told interested clubs they will have to splash out £66million to sign striker Gonzalo Higuain.
Higuain netted 18 goals in Serie A last season and Napoli have now released a statement explaining that any club wanting to buy Higuain will have to meet his €94.7m (£66m) buy-out clause.
"Napoli are keen to clarify certain articles, published in some newspapers, about the departure of Higuain," a statement by the club read.
"The official clarification from Napoli is the following: there is a clause in Gonzalo Higuain's contract. The clause is £66million.
"There have been no bids. Anyone who wants the player will have to pay the club that amount."
