Elif Elmas' name continues to circulate in the Napoli-related market environments, but without occupying a central role in the club's plans. According to Il Mattino, the former blue midfielder remains a concrete possibility, although not considered a priority target by the Neapolitan management.
Napoli, engaged in defining the squad to be entrusted to Antonio Conte, keeps the dialogue open for a possible return of Elmas. However, the company currently has no intention of making a decisive move, considering other roads more urgent to take.
Missed opportunities and complicated alternatives
As the newspaper points out, the international market has not yet offered great opportunities on the offensive front. The paths that led to Federico Chiesa and Jack Grealish have effectively closed, while the suggestions related to Raheem Sterling and Jadon Sancho appear destined to run aground for economic and technical reasons.
The club's strategy
In this context, Napoli carefully evaluates every move, seeking to balance immediate needs and future prospects. Elmas therefore remains a monitored profile, but not the first on the list: a solution to be considered only if the other options do not materialize.
