Napoli and Roma Seek Ways to Do Some Business Together | OneFootball

Juventus aren’t the only side interested in Giacomo Raspadori, as Roma have laid eyes on him as well, especially should they need to replace Paulo Dybala, and they could attempt to arrange a swap with Napoli, perhaps involving Lorenzo Pellegrini, Sky reported.

The midfielder’s willingness to leave the team remains to be determined. Moreover, there’s a gap in the wages of the two players, so it wouldn’t be easy to devise. According to Corriere dello Sport (via MSN), the two clubs could attempt to pull it off with a different man. For instance, Nicola Zalewski, who’s on an expiring contract and won’t renew it.

At this stage, everything is preliminary between Roma and Napoli regarding Raspadori and Pellegrini, and also with Juventus. His valuation is vastly higher than Danilo’s, which complicates a prospective trade. Moreover, the Brazilian veteran doesn’t want to be used as a bargaining chip. The Azzurri would need a midfielder if they shipped off Michael Folorunsho. He could join Fiorentina on a simple loan, La Gazzetta dello Sport relayed.

Our Take on Napoli, Roma, Raspadori, and Pellegrini

The former would help a few sides, but the Giallorossi would need a lot more if they lost their star. It looks like the buzz comes from his camp, which is desperate to find a new landing spot, but his price tag and salary don’t allow him to go to a smaller team, hence the issues.
