There's no denying that sports agents sure have knack for elevating their clients' values to the highest possible level, and Alessandro Lucci, Roma striker Mirko Vucinic's representative is surely living up to such.

With Spurs and Liverpool previously linked to the 27-year-old Roma No. 9's services, Lucci is now not only claiming that Napoli is also interested but almost begging the club to make a bid for him.

"Vucinic is always linked with Napoli," Lucci told Italian radio station CRC.

"His contract at Roma is until 2013, and he feels fine there and with the club but nothing is impossible in football, and Napoli is fascinating for him. They are a team going places and they know they can reach important objectives.

"Edinson Cavani, Ezequiel Lavezzi and Vucinic would form a devastating trio. They would be the best in Europe. But at the moment, no one knows what will happen with Roma in terms of players being sold," he concluded.

As a result of Napoli's interest and the hint that Roma may be willing to listen to offers, pursuit has "stepped up by Liverpool and Spurs," according to Metro, with BBC and Guardian also making the link.

The Montenegro international is valued at £22 million, according to TransferMarkt.co.uk.
