Napoli, goalkeeping intrigue: close on Kepa and Meret moves away | First page

It is a summer full of surprises for Napoli. Just a few weeks ago it seemed obvious that after the farewell of Ospina, Meret took the degrees of the titular goalkeeper e renewed a contract expiring in 2023 with the blue club. But now the situation has turned around e De Laurentiis’ club is about to close with a new number 1, in fact repudiating the investment made 4 years ago.

MERET Meret did not convince either Napoli or Spalletti and the first seasonal friendlies confirmed the negative moment that the Friulian is experiencing, also a victim of the many rumors that circulate about his name. Its future is further and further away from Vesuvius. That signature on the contract, now ready for him, eventually faded: the former Udinese wanted to have those guarantees of ownership that never arrived and so he decided to change the air. Adl was more than clear: he wants two goalkeepers who are on the same level and compete for places. After a year as a supporting actor, Meret wants to play and is looking for a team. Torino and Juric (but not only) would make false papers for him and Napoli must sell it this year to monetize.

KEPA – Who will then be the new Neapolitan number one? All roads lead to Kepa Arrizabalaga. The acceleration was given a few days ago after Spalletti’s ok. Own the Tuscan coach is discussing every day to have the new goalkeeper. The Spaniard’s agent is in Italy, the meeting with the Azzurri management has not yet arrived but Napoli chose him, wants to close shortly and the situation now seems well underway. Even the latest economic obstacles seem to have now been overcome. The Chelsea player will arrive at Maradona on dry loan, with the Londoners paying 70% of his salary. Kepa will ensure the international experience and the ability to play well with the feet that Spalletti wants. But, with Meret’s departure, it is not certain that he is the only goalkeeper to arrive. The Azzurri could also take another one, to make the number 12. On the other hand, this summer in Naples anything can happen.
