He made 30 Premier League appearances last term and his performances have caught the eye of a number of clubs.

Now claims two of Italy’s big guns are now keen.

And they state Godfrey’s agent has already begun talks with one of them.

The reports says his representatives travelled to Milan last week for discussions over a dream move to the San Sito.

However, they will face a battle with Serie A rivals Napoli for his services.

They will launch a move for the star if they fail to land No1 target Gabriel from Lille.
