Dad opens Napoli door to Rulli: Man City have offered FA Cup action

Published on: 28 June 2017

Real Sociedad goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli is open to a move to Napoli.

Manchester City have an option for the Argentine, who could move to Napoli as Pepe Reina's replacement.

Rulli's father, Omar, stated: “It would be wonderful for him to play for Napoli. All we Argentines know what it means to wear that jersey and defend it in a stadium like the San Paolo.

“But Gero wants to play as a starter, because there's the World Cup next year and I don't know how that could go if he had to contend the shirt with Reina.

“Gero is good friends with Duvan Zapata, who took him to the San Paolo a couple of times to see Napoli play. He has been clear with Manchester City, he wants to play regularly because in a year he can go to the World Cup.

“Manchester City promised him that he'd play in the FA Cup, but that's not enough."
