Barcelona defender Javier Mascherano has hinted that he would be interested in a move to Napoli.

The 29-year-old rejected claims of a move to Italy on Friday, but has since admitted that "you never know" what could happen.

"I am happy at Barca but you never know. I've always said I would love to work with [Rafael] Benitez again," he told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Mascherano enjoyed a close relationship with Napoli boss Rafael Benitez when the pair were together in the Premier League at Liverpool.
