Crossed destinies for Napoli and Juventus, the two teams, would in fact be interested in a player for the midfield.
Giovanni Manna he will be the new sporting director of Napoli. The leader of Juventus’ Next Gen will lay the foundations of the new course, taking over the position occupied for just one season by Mauro Meluso, who ended up in the dock for the club’s results. A thoughtful choice based on the profile of the Campania manager, capable of unearthing talents such as Soulè or Iling Jr in recent years, people who now consistently appear on Serie A pitches and who represent a sure capital gain for Juventus.
Reverse path to the one taken by Cristiano Giuntoli, his superior during this year, who in the post-Neapolitan championship, chose to fulfill his dream and join Juventus, a team that has always been supported within the family. How strange is football.
Giuntoli – Manna: transfer duel for former colleagues: the name comes from Spain
The two, after having worked in harmony during the current championship, which will most likely bring Juventus back to the Champions League, will become opponents in the transfer market. Over the last few years, in fact, Juventus and Napoli have often found themselves following common objectives, giving rise to battles comparable to those on the pitch.
As reported by AS, this tradition will also be respected next summer. The two managers would be paying attention to a player coming from the Spanish La Liga, Guido Rodriguez. The player, who was also followed last summer by the Azzurri, could leave Betis Seville a year late on a free transfer. The Argentine, a pure midfielder, has made 19 appearances in the Spanish top flight to date, scoring two goals.
In short, a convenient operation, even more so considering the need to intervene in the crucial area of the pitch for the reigning Italian champions. In fact, Piotr Zielinski will join Inter, Demme and Dendoncker, totally out of the blue technical project, will say goodbye, while Traorè has a 25 million clause which is difficult to exercise.
In short, there will be a real restyling in midfield and Guido Rodriguez could represent the first piece to be added to the new Napoli. We’ll see, what is certain is that Manna’s adventure under the shadow of Vesuvius would start with a bang, giving rise to the first “clash” with his recent, very recent past. Life stories, football stories, the most beautiful and craziest sport in the world.
