Barcelona midfielder Ivan Rakitic emerges as a transfer target for Napoli, according to a report.

Napoli are reportedly interested in a summer move for Barcelona midfielder Ivan Rakitic.

The Croatia international has again been a regular for the Spanish champions this season, making 31 appearances in all competitions, but he has only started 10 La Liga matches.

Rakitic's existing deal at Camp Nou will expire in June 2021, and there have been suggestions that the 2018 World Cup finalist could seek pastures new during this summer's transfer window.

Inter Milan and AC Milan have both previously been credited with an interest, but according to Marca, Napoli are also exploring the possibility of a deal.

The report claims that the Italian outfit are preparing to lose Fabian Ruiz, who has been linked with Barca, and have identified Rakitic as a potential replacement for the Spain international.

Barca boss Quique Setien recently insisted that the Croatian has not asked to leave the club.
