Alisson Santos leaves Sporting, already impressing at Napoli | OneFootball

Alisson Santos has started to show promising signs at Napoli. The 23-year-old Brazilian forward, who recently left Sporting, was utilized by Antonio Conte in the preparatory match against Giugliano, from Serie C, a match that ended with a Neapolitan victory by 3-1.

In the friendly match played this week, Alisson was the main figure of the Italian team by scoring two goals. The former Sporting winger showed effectiveness and stood out in a game that ultimately did not reach its conclusion, due to adverse weather conditions, with rain forcing the interruption of the match.

The debut goals come just days after the player's farewell at Alvalade. Alisson Santos had been decisive in his last match for Sporting, against Nacional, before moving to Italy, thus closing a short but significant chapter at the Club - which receives updates regarding Geovany Quenda.

The other goal for Napoli was scored by Giovane, also a winter signing, acquired from Hellas Verona. The game served for Antonio Conte to observe several players recently integrated into the squad, in an informal context, as part of the preparation for upcoming official commitments.

It should be noted that the Neapolitan club confirmed, last Monday afternoon, the arrival of Alisson Santos on loan from the Club, with a purchase option included in the agreement. The Brazilian winger thus joins Italian football, a year after being signed from União de Leiria.
