Napoli Targets Como's Midfield Gem
11 Feb
Summary
- Napoli seeks midfield reinforcements for next season.
- Maximo Perrone is Napoli's top midfield transfer target.
- Perrone has a buyback clause held by Manchester City.
Napoli plans to strengthen its midfield in the upcoming transfer window, with Maximo Perrone of Como identified as their primary target. The club observed the Argentine player during a recent Coppa Italia match.
Perrone is considered a suitable successor for the 31-year-old Stanislav Lobotka, whose future is revisited annually. Perrone has been informed of Napoli's interest, though Como secured him for €13 million after an initial loan from Manchester City.
Manchester City retains a buyback clause and a percentage of any future sale. Como, currently sixth in Serie A, may need to comply with Financial Fair Play if they secure European qualification, potentially influencing their player sales strategy.
