Fellaini is on his way out of Old Trafford after just the one season and Napoli have strongly been linked with the Belgian international this summer.

De Laurentiis believes Fellaini's famous hairstyle would suit the club's style and make him the ideal midfield partner for shaven-headed Gökhan İnler.

"Fellaini is one of the names of our midfield, but he's not the only one," De Laurentiis told Radio Kiss Kiss.

"His hairstyle could be perfect for the Neapolitan style. I like his 'lion-hair', I have introduced İnler like a lion, Fellaini could compensate his lack of hair.

"They would make a nice pair. Fellaini has long hair, and the Swiss (İnler) is shaven. Together they have a hairstyle that looks like a lion's mane and three years ago I presented İnler with the mask of a lion!"
