GRAHAM POTTER is being lined up by Napoli if they decide to axe Rudi Garcia, according to reports.
The former Brighton and Chelsea boss has been out of work since he was sacked by the Blues in April.
Potter has already turned down approaches from Rangers and Lyon, with him in no rush to return to the dugout.
It is believed he is waiting for a club that suits him and it remains to be seen whether he will be tempted by Napoli.
They won the Serie A last season for the first time in 33 years under the guidance of Luciano Spalletti.
He since resigned and took over the Italian national team.

They currently sit fifth in the league, already seven points behind AC Milan at the top and they are second in their Champions League group.
And outlet Foot Mercato claim that pressure is mounting on Garcia with some of his own players expressing concerns about him.
Potter could be set to battle fellow ex-Chelsea boss Antonio Conte for the job with Sky Italy reporting that he is a leading candidate.
