The Napoli transfer market is taking shape, a new name has appeared on sporting director Manna’s list.
The more days that pass, the more Napoli’s transfer market becomes clearer. Antonio Conte And Giovanni Mannarespectively new coach and new sporting director of the club, are in constant and close contact to define the future of Napoli.
The first issue to be resolved is that concerning Giovanni Di Lorenzo, the Italian captain, who is slowly getting closer to the club following the break-up a few weeks ago, which occurred due to some friction with the owner Aurelio De Laurentiis, who had decided to put all on the market. A choice immediately rejected by Conte, who at the time of signing informed the president that he considered only two players in the squad essential: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Giovanni Di Lorenzo.
Napoli, new target in the midfield? Eyes on a former Milan midfielder
One of the sectors that will most need a restyling is certainly the median area. Piotr Zielinski signed for Inter at zero, Demme will say goodbye after two years spent outside the squad, and finally, it will also be goodbye for Leander Dendoncker and Hamed Jr Traorè. In short, there will be a need for at least two additions, considering the now obvious reconfirmation of Michael Folorunsho, who returned from his loan to Hellas Verona, with whom he achieved salvation as a protagonist.
There have been many midfielders linked to Napoli, today, however, the Corriere dello Sporthas revealed a new indiscretion, a name, which to date has never circulated in blue orbit, that of Aster Vranckx. A name that is not new, already known in Serie A circles, given the experience of the Belgian footballer in the Milan shirt in the 2022-23 season.
Vranckx, who returned to Wolfsburg, with whom he earned the call to Euro 2024, would be a suitable profile for Antonio Conte’s football, given his versatility, which would allow him to play both the role of midfielder and insertion midfielder. To date, however, there is no real negotiation for the twenty-one year old, who however would have entered Manna’s list.
We will also need to understand the future of the other Azzurri: to date only Stanislav Lobotka seems untouchable, with the various Anguissa and Cajuste, who could say goodbye given a suitable offer. Specifically, according to rumors in recent weeks, there would have been some Arab interest in the Cameroonian, which to date has never materialised. We’ll see.
