Napoli have agreed a deal to rent the talented Real Madrid defender

Napoli have reached an agreement on the lease of Real Madrid defender Rafa Marin, according to insider Fabrizio Romano.

It is noted that the parties will take a few days to finalize the transfer. The structure of the deal will also include a buyout clause - i.e. Napoli will be able to formalize a full transfer of the player if they wish.

Marin, 22, is a Real Madrid pupil. Until this season, he played exclusively for Castilla in the third division.

In the completed season, Marin played on loan for Alaves. For this team he played 35 matches in all tournaments, without scoring.

Earlier, it was reported that Marin should replace in Real Madrid Nacho Fernandez, who leaves the club as a free agent.
