Napoli: Alex Meret toward confirmation, Elia Caprile toward farewell

Napoli is preparing a renewal and a farewell among the goalkeepers. According to a report from "La Gazzetta dello Sport", the partenopei have reportedly reached an agreement in principle for the contract extension of Alex Meret, who will bind himself to the Azzurri until June 30, 2026, with an option to renew also for the following season.

The brilliant start to the season has convinced coach Antonio Conte to bet on him for the next championship as well, where Napoli hopes to return to Champions League contention.

Different discourse, however, for Elia Caprile, who failed to convince the Salento coach in the matches in which he replaced Meret. For the former Bari and Empoli, in fact, the partenopei would be working to define a loan exchange with Cagliari. To take the reverse route, in this case, would be Simone Scuffet.

Negotiations between the two clubs would already be at an advanced stage and the white smoke could also come through the inclusion of a right of redemption in favor of the Rossoblù to buy Caprile outright at the end of the season.

Once the goal is settled, the priority for Napoli will be the purchase of a viable alternative in defense. The name that has been circulating for some time would be that of Danilo, who è been put out of the squad by Juventus and will leave the Bianconeri already in January.
