A complete defensive overhaul. Napoli is negotiating with two center-backs for a transfer

Napoli needs a complete defensive overhaul following the arrival of new coach Antonio Conte, and the club is actively addressing this need.

According to Sportitalia, the Partenopei are in negotiations with two defenders regarding potential transfers.

Napoli has reportedly offered Torino €35 million for center-back Alessandro Buongiorno. This amount does not include bonuses, which could increase the total value. The Neapolitans are also considering player exchanges in addition to the proposed sum.

Torino, on the other hand, hopes to maximize the sale price for their center-back, especially given that Buongiorno is set to participate in Euro 2024 with the Italian national team, potentially boosting his market value.

Simultaneously, negotiations for signing Mario Hermoso are ongoing. Napoli must compete with Juventus, Inter, and Premier League teams such as Tottenham and Manchester United for his signature.

Hermoso became a free agent after his contract with Atlético Madrid expired. The player will turn 29 next week.
