Naples, possible twist on Giovanni Di Lorenzo’s future
The captain’s future è in the balance, but not yet decided.
Calciomercato Napoli: Giovanni Di Lorenzo, captain of the historic 2023 Parthenopean Scudetto, è seemed increasingly close to a farewell after the bitter championship conclusion of Francesco Calzona’s team. While hypotheses of a move to Inter and especially Juventus remain very hot, the feeling è that a revival is underway to try to confirm him next year as well.
He spoke about it on Wednesday 'Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli' according to which contact has already taken place between Di Lorenzo and Lele Oriali. The latter, future team manager of the Azzurri, would have phoned the captain to check the possibilities of his staying with the team. Especially in the event that, as it seems, the next coach is Antonio Conte.
The rift to mend è però deep, as confirmed by the statements of Mario Giuffredi, agent of Giovanni Di Lorenzo. "We stay as long asé the club wants us. If they doné t want us anymore, è another pair of sleeves. Should they inform us that the boy è on the market in case of a fair offer, then it means the club no longer believes in him", he had told 'Tele A'.
And the right offer, according to the 'Gazzetta dello Sport', may already be there. It would be formulated by Juventus, which to secure Di Lorenzo would have proposed to Napoli money plus the tags of one of Mattia Perin, Daniele Rugani and Moise Kean. It only remains to be seen whether this scenario would titillate the Neapolitan management, but also what the opinions of the person concerned and the future Azzurri coach are. Especially if the latter were indeed Antonio Conte.
