Napoli is determined to bolster their offensive department and have identified Dan Ndoye as the ideal profile to strengthen their wing players.
As reported by Matteo Moretto on Fabrizio Romano's YouTube channel, the Neapolitan club has already submitted an official proposal to Bologna, structured similarly to the operation that brought Lorenzo Lucca under the shadow of Vesuvius.
The proposal: loan with obligation, "Lucca" formula The offer advanced by Napoli involves a complex formula: an onerous loan with an obligation to buy. The details are significant:
9 million euros immediately for the onerous loan
26 million euros for the obligation to buy
5 million in bonuses tied to individual and team objectives
The total operation therefore amounts to around 40 million euros, a significant figure that confirms how much Ndoye is considered a priority by the Campanian management.
Bologna's position: evaluation and conditions Bologna, however, has not yet accepted. The red and blue club values Ndoye at a slightly higher figure and, above all, is not convinced by the proposed formula, which seems designed to meet Napoli's financial needs, spreading the economic commitment over several budget years.
The feeling is that Bologna is in no hurry to conclude and intends to take time to evaluate all options, especially in light of the concrete interest of other clubs.
English competition: Nottingham on the Swiss player The second obstacle for Napoli is represented by international competition. Nottingham Forest, in fact, has already submitted an offer of 30 million euros and is preparing to raise it. The English club, which plays in the Premier League, has placed the Swiss player at the center of their technical project.
This is not a detail to be overlooked: the Premier League has a strong appeal to many players, and Ndoye is no exception. The allure of an experience in the top English championship could guide his preferences, making the negotiation more complicated for Napoli.
