Arsenal, Man Utd and Chelsea target: I knew about £18.3m offer
NAPOLI midfielder Marek Hamsik admits he was aware Juventus attempted to sign him.
Marek Hamsik reveals Juventus' interest during the summer
The Old Lady made an £18.3million offer for Hamsik during the summer window, but Napoli rejected the bid for their captain.
The experienced midfielder, who has been at the Stadio San Paolo four eight years, was also a target for the Premier League.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have also been keeping tabs on Hamsik.
And while Hamsik admits knew of Juve's bid, he refuses to comment on whether a move to the Italian champions would interest him.
“I knew about the interest from Juventus,” Hamsik told reporters while on international duty with Slovakia.
“I knew about the €25m (£18.3m) offer, but I’d prefer not to say what I think about it. It’s better that way.”
