Napoli's Attack Focus: Gabriel Jesus, Alternatives, and Necessary Departures
Following the arrivals of Badiashile and Favasuli, the Neapolitan club aims to secure a forward signing for the attack. However, player sales are a prerequisite.
Napoli continues its market activity in search of reinforcements. After the signings of Badiashile and Favasuli, the club's attention is now firmly on bringing in a key player for the attacking department. While Gabriel Jesus remains the principal target, alternative options such as Zirkzee and Nicolas Jackson are also being monitored, with inquiries made in recent days.
The Situation with Gabriel Jesus
The Brazilian forward is reportedly outside Mikel Arteta's plans at Arsenal, as evidenced by his exclusion from the Community Shield match against Manchester City. His valuation is estimated to be around 20 million euros. The main obstacle remains his substantial salary of 6 million euros net per season.
Sporting director Manna is evaluating several alternatives in the Premier League. These include Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea, who has returned from his loan spell at Bayern Munich, and Joshua Zirkzee from Manchester United, who is also being pursued by Juventus.
Incoming Signings Tied to Outgoings
Any new offensive acquisition is contingent on player departures. Noa Lang appears to be Galatasaray's second choice should they fail to reach an agreement for Rafa Leao. Additionally, the prospects of Lorenzo Lucca, currently the backup to Hojlund, are being assessed. In midfield, Atalanta has shown interest in Frank Anguissa, with ongoing distance regarding his contract renewal.
