Napoli, two new midfield targets after injuries: Fabrizio Romano’s update | OneFootball

Big news is coming for Napoli's incoming market, which needs replacements in midfield after various injuries. Here's the update from Fabrizio Romano.

Napoli, midfield emergency: Manna is considering two signings for the January repair

After a lavish summer transfer window, Napoli seems to be shadowed by bad luck. The squad is currently depleted due to various muscle issues, but with the international break, some players might return to Mister Conte's disposal. However, not everyone will have this privilege. Following the recent injury of Kevin De Bruyne, which will keep him out for at least 3 months (expected back in February), Napoli loses another key player, Zambo Anguissa, for additional time.

In this unfortunate situation, Napoli finds itself having to manage numerous closely scheduled matches with a depleted midfield. Giovanni Manna is thus called to step in to fill the gaps left by the Belgian and the Cameroonian. Here's the situation update from market expert Fabrizio Romano on his YouTube channel:

“Napoli will make significant moves in the market. The club was already planning to strengthen the midfield due to the Africa Cup of Nations, but with the injuries to De Bruyne and Anguissa, they will necessarily have to act. We cannot rule out a double intervention in the midfield market. A midfielder will arrive regardless, 101%, but a second one might also come. The name Kobbie Mainoo is always on the list: responses are awaited from Manchester United, but it is certainly a name to watch. Another player who has always been liked by Napoli is Lorenzo Pellegrini, whose contract is expiring with Roma. There are also other foreign players on the list with different profiles, more physical and disruptive players.”

Therefore, Manna has a double move in the pipeline to address the midfield shortages, but for real negotiations, we will have to wait for the winter transfer window.
