Giovanni Di Lorenzo he hasn’t changed his mind: the captain who brought the championship back to Naples thinks of nothing but farewell. The former Empoli right-back has already announced that he wants to change team at the end of the European Championship, despite the arrival of Antonio Conte on the bench. But the new coach from Lecce doesn’t like it and considers him one of the essential players in the squad from which to start again next season.
Something certainly broke between Di Lorenzo and Napoli, however, for this reason the continuous public outings of the agent Mario Giuffredi followed closely by the blue club’s categorical no to the forced transfer of the player. So how can this issue be resolved? There position of Napoli is clear, at the end of Euro 2024 the parties will meet to update on a meeting point for both.
But there is a loophole. According to what was revealed by The Republic, the only way to escape from Naples would be in the event of an offer coming from abroad and, we read, not less than 25 million euros. At that point Aurelio De Laurentiis’ club could also bow to the player’s desire to say goodbye. Still better than selling him to a direct competitor in Serie A, avoiding strengthening a historic rival like Juventus – who has often been compared to Di Lorenzo.
