Napoli is on the verge of signing the Italy national team defender

After a disastrous season, Napoli is out of European competitions. The team has changed their coach and has already started working in the transfer market. According to insider Nicolo Schira, the first incoming transfer is expected to be Alessandro Buongiorno from Torino.

A contract for the Italy national team central defender has already been prepared, extending until 2029 with a salary of €2.5 million per year plus bonuses, and the deal is in its final stages.

Previously, it was reported that Napoli offered €30 million plus €5 million in bonuses or a player exchange for the Italy international. According to the Italian press, Torino demands a minimum of €45 million, with the possibility of increasing this amount.

Buongiorno has expressed his desire to join Napoli, and the new head coach, Antonio Conte, is also interested in this transfer.

It's worth noting that Alessandro is included in the final squad for Italy at Euro 2024. The first match will take place today, June 15, against Albania, starting at 21:00 Central European Time.
