Napoli are ready to take up their purchase option from Arsenal on David Ospina, even if he doesn’t make 30 appearances.

The goalkeeper arrived on loan for €1m in mid-August, during the final days of the transfer window, with an option to buy for a further €3.5m.

That would become mandatory if he played in 30 competitive games for the Partenopei during the season.

According to La Repubblica newspaper, Napoli have decided they will purchase Ospina on a permanent basis, even if he doesn’t meet the criteria.

Juventus interest in Bayern Munich’s Colombia international James Rodriguez could be on hold after a serious knee injury.
