The transfer destinies of Milan and Napoli risk intersecting: the Rossoneri are reportedly eyeing two blue targets.
Recorded the arrival of Antonio Conte, Napoli evaluates the profiles indicated by the new coach during the transfer market. Conte, in close contact with the new sporting director Manna, would have already indicated the untransferable and the possibly expendable.
Among the certain departures, there is Victor Osimhen, who will most likely say goodbye to Napoli through the termination clause in his contract. To replace the Nigerian, Conte would have indicated Romelu Lukaku, always his favorite striker and already managed in the Inter championship title between 2019 and 2021, in which the Belgian created sparks with goals and high-level performances.
Napoli, watch out for Milan: the Rossoneri are aiming for two transfer targets for the Azzurri
The domino effect will soon be triggered, especially for the advanced department. A first transfer will be enough, perhaps that of Osimhen, who has many admirers in the Premier League, to get the ball rolling. Another club that will need to replace the 9 of the last few years will certainly be Milan, orphaned by the eternal Olivier Giroud.
The Rossoneri seem very close to Zirkzee, Napoli’s old transfer target, but apparently second Gianluca Di Marzio, the greatest expert on the transfer market, problems would have arisen. Problems that would have led the Rossoneri club to other evaluations, evaluations that would concern common objectives with Napoli. These are the statements released to SKY Sports:
“Milan is not sure of reaching Zirkzee as the agents ask for 15 million commissions and the Rossoneri would not like to reach this figure. For this reason, the Milanese club has kept contacts alive today Dovbyk of Girona and Broja of Chelsea.”
Milan would therefore also be paying attention to Artem Dovbyk, one of the best strikers in the latest Spanish Liga. A second common objective, considering the approaches on the Lukaku side, also sought at Milanello last year. The Zirkzee issue will therefore be decisive, the first objective of the Lombards, on which however there is a “monster” request for commissions. In short, if the Rossoneri do not find an agreement for him, the Lukaku and Dovbyk paths could become hotter, to the detriment of Napoli.
So all that remains is to wait, but the countdown now seems over, the transfer market time has unofficially started, waiting for July 1st, the useful date to definitively make the new arrivals official.
