However, his agent – Alvaro Torres – said any talks over a new contract would have to wait.

"At the moment he's focused on Napoli," he told Marca .

"They've faced a lot of changes, including Carlo Ancelotti's sacking and they've had a difficult year.

"We've parked the renewal for now until the end of the season."

"Obviously a lot of important clubs have asked about him and his situation, and we've told Napoli," he said.

"But now Fabian has to think about Napoli and it's natural that these things happen after he was the best player at the European Under-21 Championship and he's had three good seasons.

"We all agree that he's going to be one of the big players this decade."
