TMW – Napoli Transfer Market: Interested in Frattesi, Goretzka, and Atta for the Midfield…

Napoli is increasingly looking towards January. The injury situation regarding De Bruyne and Anguissa has led to setting new priorities. One of these is the midfield. The idea is to intervene by bringing in a quality player who can immediately raise the level. In recent months, the Azzurri club has already explored various profiles and will soon decide on whom to make a definitive move. One option abroad is Goretzka. Clearly, we’re talking about a player of international caliber who would be perfect for Napoli, but here the path is an uphill one. In fact, Bayern has no intention of letting him go in January, and Goretzka is not putting any pressure to leave. However, the Azzurri are ready to step in should there be even the slightest opening. In Italy, there are other solutions. One of these is Frattesi. With the arrival of Chivu, the former Sassuolo player thought he would get more playing time, but in reality, the situation hasn’t changed much compared to the recent past.

In the last five Serie A matches, Frattesi has played just thirty minutes, with four appearances against Napoli, Fiorentina, Verona, and Lazio, and against Milan, Diouf was preferred over him. The same reasoning made for Goretzka applies here. Napoli likes him a lot, but it’s extremely complicated for him to move during the winter transfer window. There are also two other options in Serie A. The first is Atta from Udinese, who has been showing great things in this first part of the season. The Pozzo family wants to lock him down, and his valuation is already very high. Besides him, there’s Frendrup from Genoa.
