Roma locked in head-to-head race with Napoli for Dodo | OneFootball

Napoli and Roma are searching for a full-back who can meet Allegri and Gasperini’s demands.

Napoli has swooped in on Khalili, with whom they have an agreement, but the significant gap with Union Saint-Gilloise has put a damper on the deal. This is why Manna has turned to Fiorentina’s Dodo.

The Brazilian full-back’s contract expires on June 30, 2027, and he’s also a transfer opportunity for Roma, given that Fiorentina can’t raise their demands too much.

Dodo is on the verge of leaving Fiorentina. The Brazilian full-back isn’t expected to renew his contract, which expires in a year, so Fiorentina is listening to offers to avoid losing him on a free transfer.

As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, an offer between €12 and €15 million could be enough to convince the Tuscan club to sell the 1998-born player. Dodo is eager to play in the Champions League, a competition both Napoli and Roma will compete in.

The Giallorossi have been working on the player for some time and could count on his long-standing friendship with Wesley.

The Neapolitans, however, are confident they have what it takes to convince Dodo to embrace the project with Massimiliano Allegri.
