TEHRAN -- Italian soccer club Napoli have expressed interest in signing Iranian international forward Sardar Azmoun, Tehran Times daily reported on Tuesday.
Azmoun has been repeatedly linked with a move to English Premier League teams in recent years but a transfer has not yet come to fruition.
The 25-year-old forward has represented Iran at the 2015 and 2019 AFC Asian Cups and the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Azmoun joined Rubin Kazan from Iranian club Stephan in 2013 and spent the 2015-16 season on loan at FC Rostov. He moved to Rostov on a permanent deal at the start of 2016-17 season before Rubin bought him back in 2017.
Azmoun joined the leaders of the Russian domestic league Zenit on a three-and-a-half-year deal in February 2019.
