According to Florence-based daily La Nazione, Corvino has sounded out the Partenopei over the possibility of releasing the promising 22-year-old.
But his Napoli counterpart, Pierpaolo Marino, has made it clear that any deal for the Brazil-born defender would have to see either Massimo Gobbi or Marco Donadel move to the San Paolo in part-exchange.
However, Santacroce is also a target for Ciro Ferrara’s new-look Juventus and there are suggestions that the reported deal for Paolo De Ceglie, who looks set to join the Campani in a co-ownership agreement, will only go through if Santacroce is allowed to relocate to Turin.
Santacroce arrived at Napoli from Brescia in January 2008 in a €5.5million deal and the Vesuviani are expected to demand in excess of €8m to release ‘Emperor Nero’.
