Napoli beat Liverpool to Hector Herrera

Napoli have swooped in ahead of Liverpool to secure an agreement with Porto for Hector Herrera, according to Correio da Manha.

The Mexico international looks set to swap the Estadio Dragao for the Estadio San Paolo, with the Serie A runners up offering a €18 million fee plus €5m in performance-related bonuses.

The Portuguese club seem to have accepted the offer, despite origianlly placing a €25m price tag on the midfielders head.

Looks like Liverpool have been left empty-handed once again...
