Southampton, Crystal Palace and Stoke City have reportedly all expressed an interest in Napoli striker Manolo Gabbiadini.
The striker spent much of last season at the Stadio San Paolo behind the free-scoring Gonzalo Higuain in the pecking order.
However, that has not deterred the three Premier League clubs from making an enquiry regarding the Italy international's availability.
The report claims that Southampton may hold the upper hand because they can offer Gabbiadini Europa League football next term.
It is believed that Napoli value the 24-year-old at £19m, having supposedly paid half that price to sign him from Sampdoria 18 months ago.
