Johan Djourou's agent believes the Switzerland international would be an ideal signature for Napoli.
The Serie A club are on the lookout for defensive reinforcements after Paolo Cannavaro and Gianluca Grava's were handed six-month bans.
Djourou has struggled to get a look-in at Arsenal this season, making only two appearances for Arsene Wenger's side, and has been linked with a move to the San Paolo.
Napoli already have three Swiss players in their squad - Gokhan Inler, Valon Behrami and Blerim Dzemaili - and Djourou's representative, Flavio Ferraria, believes that would him settle in.
However, he revealed Napoli have yet to make an approach for the 25-year-old.
Ferraria said: "Johan could be the ideal player for Napoli, but I have never had any contact with them.
"If Napoli want him, they know where to turn. They must first speak with Arsenal."
Ferraria said that although Napoli had appeal, Djourou would not leave the Emirates Stadium hastily.
He added: "Djourou is closely bound with Arsenal. He has a contract until 2014 and before considering any proposals, it is clear that he should think very well.
"To leave Arsenal, he should find a team as prestigious. Napoli has grown a lot in recent years and we have to not forget that there are many Swiss players that would help him to fit into the group".
Cannavaro and Grava were banned for failing to report former Napoli player Matteo Gianello's involvement match-fixing.
Gianello confessed to attempting to fix a game between Napoli and Sampdoria in 2010, leading to the club being deducted two points on Tuesday.

The club and the future, how long have we been hearing that.....it's started 6-7 years ago and look how that turned out, f*ck the future let's look at things in the present and in the present none of those players are proven, I think Wilshire and Oxo will prove themselves but it doesn't change the fact they haven't yet (one has just come back from a year and a half out) and that they are happy and probably had a few years left on their contracts.
When people wanted a British backbone they wanted quality British players, 3 of them aren't at all IMO, the other two could be so I guess the club can be forgiven there.
The point is we've been rewarding failure for years, look at the players we've got lumbered with because of this, Djourou, Denilson, Bendtner to name but three, the players don't have to prove a thing we just hand out long term contracts on the basis of thin air.

What has happend in the past is the past,we can only look forward and get behind the boys.
Well no those players may not have won anything but they contributed a lot and became top players so I'd say they earnt the money they were on, unlike the nobodies we're handing out contracts to.Quote:

Well their a lot became nothing as they failed to help us win anything, don't make them the inocent's in this they ain't. The past is the past cause you can't do f all about it and only look forward.Quote:

End of the day you either get behind the team or don't.
The fuck? :unsure:Quote:
