Antonio Conte wants Udinese’s Oumar Solet at Napoli | OneFootball

Udinese’s Oumar Solet heads shortlist for Napoli manager Antonio Conte.

According to a report by Daniele Longo, Napoli head coach Antonio Conte has requested his management to establish contacts with Udinese to sign Oumar Solet on a possible permanent transfer.

The operation is set to be initiated in the summer and the Neapolitans aim to create the base for the project from now on. The Frenchman impressed Conte after showcasing colossal performances in his nine games with Udinese this campaign.

Napoli are expected to face competition from Serie A counterparts Inter as they also have Solet under their radar. Apart from these two giants, Atalanta remain close in the running.

Udinese are set to start considering offers with the base value of €20 million, and if they manage to sell him, it would be a huge profit for them as they brought Solet for free. The 25-year-old joined the Friulani during the January transfer window after signing a pre-contract agreement with them in the summer.
