Many people like him and how could it not be so. Santiago Castro is one of the most tantalizing targets of the upcoming summer soccer market of Inter and Napoli. The Argentine flirted with the partenopei by posting an Instagram story in which he was portrayed a picture of Maradona in “santino” version, complete with halo and club crest.
At the same time, his entourage got to talk to Javier Zanetti, who began to weave the lines to try to bring him to the San Siro, as he did with Nico Paz. No direct contact, only rumors, even fanciful suppositions, yet they were enough to turn on the light in the eyes of the fans who warmed up to the idea of seeing the Argentine in their team’s jersey.
Castro, Inter o Napoli? La risposta del Bologna per l’attaccante
The Argentine tradition is strong in both teams. In Inter, besides the aforementioned Zanetti, it has seen strikers of the caliber of Milito or the current draftee Lautaro Martinez. In Napoli there is an entire stadium dedicated to the most important player in the club’s history, not to mention other illustrious players such as Higuain or Lavezzi.
But Santiago Castro may not wear the jersey of either team, at least for the time being. This is what Corriere dello Sport leaks, reporting a clear communication from Bologna: the striker will not move this summer.

The 2004 class, who arrived in January 2024 for 13.5 million euros, has exploded during the season. There are 10 goals scored with 8 assists, with a double-double in terms of bonuses very close. His style of play has exalted Vincenzo Italiano, who bet on him and has not been without him since, except due to injuries.
All postponed, not least because Castro’s contract runs until 2028 and his price tag will exceed 40 million. Bologna wants to cash in on an even higher figure, but not this summer. It wants to enjoy its bomber at least another year, perhaps replaying the Champions League. Of course, without a fourth place finish, it might be harder to retain the Argentine, who is flattered by offers from top Serie A clubs.
Playing alongside compatriot Lautaro or a bomber like Lukaku, coached by Inzaghi or Conte could galvanize him. The floor, at that point, will pass to the player and his agents, who will have a chance to discuss with Bologna.
