Napoli Calcio Latest – The Azzurri could consider a January transfer of one of their players: the surprise choice that De Laurentiis is considering
For Napoli calcio latest news comes from the Azzurri’s soccer market. With less than a week to go before the end of negotiations, a last-minute transfer is still not ruled out. A twist, both for what is the current situation in the Neapolitan house (short roster and few purchases in January), and for the value that the player has obtained even under the technical guidance of Antonio Conte.
At such a delicate stage of the season, it seems unbelievable to think that Napoli could still give up a few pieces of its roster, but the market is unpredictable. In fact, according to reports from Tuttosport, it cannot be ruled out that the Parthenopean management may still proceed with one last big transfer, despite the fact that Kvaratskhelia’s replacement has not yet arrived.
Napoli, cessione per Simeone? L’intreccio con Raspadori
Reporting the news are the colleagues of Tuttosport, who in today’s edition provided important updates on the future of Giovanni Simeone. According to the newspaper, in fact, Torino would be studying an alternative route to get to the Argentine striker, believed to be Plan B to Beto, former Udinese center forward. The granata would like to exploit the assist of Raspadori’s permanence, for a new assault on Cholito.

It is precisely on the former Sassuolo that the first part of Tuttosport’s article focuses, linking the future of the two strikers:
“Raspadori would like to play more. Roma is strong on him, a destination the player likes. Claudio Ranieri has asked for him for the present but also to build the Roma that will come. The problem is that De Laurentiis has “shot” 20 million ready cash, without any other kind of operation. But there is more. Antonio Conte wants to keep him at Napoli, considers him important and will soon try to convince him to stay. The moment Raspadori decides to stay, Simeone will be put on the market.”
L’assalto del Torino per Simeone: le difficoltà della trattativa
On this basis, Torino would decide to step in. In fact, in case it fails to close for Beto, the priority would become Napoli’s 29-year-old. Inside the newspaper on newsstands today, the granata’s strategy is explained.

“The tag continues to lose value. Until a month ago his valuation, and De Laurentiis’ request, was 15 million. But by staying out often, this figure is bound to drop; by keeping him in mothballs, Napoli at the end of the season will risk seeing a significant capital definitely reduced.
And so Toro could for real take him on loan until the end of the season if the two clubs do not come to an economic understanding before the last day of the market. Considering that his ID card is starting to turn yellow, Toro is not willing to pull out 15 million, but about 10 maybe yes.”
It remains, in any case, an extremely complex operation. Simeone has become an important player for Antonio Conte and Conte has become an important coach for Simeone. His entrance on the field against Juventus proved this. The Argentine struggles on every ball, even from the ground and with his head. Getting him to leave Naples seems an impossible task, to the delight of the Neapolitan fans, who want to hold on to him until the summer.
