Keita Balde Diao’s agent has firmly denied reports he had a meeting with Napoli to discuss the Lazio striker.

The Senegal international is one of the candidates to replace Manolo Gabbiadini over the January transfer window, potentially in a swap deal.

Radio CRC claimed that agent Ulisse Savini met with Napoli to talk about the Keita situation this week and the wages on offer are higher than his current Lazio salary.

However, representative Roberto Calenda reacted angrily via Twitter to complain that he is Keita’s only agent.

“I never met with anyone from Napoli. And nobody can speak on my behalf or for Keita. I suggest this reporter updates his software, as clearly he’s missed a few things.”

The 21-year-old forward has four goals and three assists in 10 Serie A appearances so far this season.
