Ultimatum from Napoli: club blocks winger's move to Atalanta

Negotiations between the Italian clubs have hit a deadlock due to disagreements over the structure of the deal.

Details: According to renowned insider Nicolò Schira, Napoli has not given the green light for Dutch winger Noa Lang to join Atalanta on loan. The Bergamo-based club is pushing hard to sign the 27-year-old on a loan deal with an option to buy.

However, the Partenopei's management is not satisfied with this arrangement: Napoli insists on including an obligation to buy clause in the agreement. The talks are ongoing, but both sides have yet to find common ground.

It's worth noting that Noa Lang has been a Napoli player since the summer of 2025. He spent the second half of the 2025/26 season on loan at Turkish side Galatasaray before returning to the Neapolitan club. According to Transfermarkt, the player's current market value stands at €22 million.
