Napoli’s Interest in Neymar This Summer
Neymar’s Potential Move
Napoli’s leadership looked into the possibility of signing Neymar from Santos during the recent transfer window. Reports indicate that the club’s executives gave serious thought to reuniting the Brazilian sensation, who previously shone at Barcelona and PSG, with European football.
Consensus Among Napoli’s Top Officials
Key figures in Napoli’s organization, including President Aurelio de Laurentiis, Sports Director Giovanni Manna, and Coach Antonio Conte, all expressed their desire to pursue the talented forward.
Shift in Focus
However, the club’s enthusiasm for Neymar quickly waned as they became aware of Kevin de Bruyne’s impending exit from Manchester City, which shifted their priorities.
Future Possibilities
Despite Napoli’s decision to not move forward with the deal at this time, Neymar and his representatives have not dismissed the possibility of a transfer to Italy as he approaches the latter stages of his career.
