Napoli have joined Liverpool among the growing pack of clubs chasing Barcelona forward Alexis Sanchez.

The 24-year-old, who plays for Chile at international level, has had mixed fortunes at the Nou Camp this season, managing just nine league starts and one goal.

Barca managed to fend off competition from across Europe when they signed him from Udinese in a £23m deal back in July 2011, but he has struggled to nail down a first-team place.

However, he is still highly rated in Italy, with Juventus and Napoli both keen to rival Liverpool in order to bring him back to Serie A.

Despite being contracted to Barcelona until 2016, he has been tipped to seek pastures new at the end of the season, although the Spanish giants will be looking to reclaim a large portion of their initial £23m outlay.

No, we need a goalpoacher who assists Luis Suarez and Danny Sturridge, not a second striker who does find the back of the net once in a blue moon, for me it would be just money wasted!
