ALisson Santos may have played his last minutes in the Sporting shirt at the San Mamés stadium in Spain. Napoli is strongly determined to secure the Brazilian winger’s contract and wants to accelerate the deal over the next few hours.
According to information provided by Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, a specialist in matters related to the transfer market, the Serie A club hopes to be able to close the loan for the Sporting winger this Saturday.
Apparently, and according to the same source, Napoli want Alisson in a loan agreement, which will be valid until the end of the season, paying a fee of three million euros for this transfer, and reserving a purchase option of 15 million euros in the summer.
Gianluca Di Marzio also guarantees that Kamaldeen Sulemana, Atalanta’s 23-year-old Ghanaian winger, appears as an alternative to David Neres, a winger who previously played for Benfica and who has been out of the squad for a long time under the orders of Italian coach Antonio Conte due to injury, but this deal is at an impasse.

Alisson Santos has already rejected two proposals from Spain
Regarding this same rumor, Italian journalist Nicolò Schira, also a specialist in matters related to the transfer market, goes even further and guarantees that the process is indeed in the “final phase” of negotiation.
The aforementioned journalist reports that the green and white number 27 has already said no to two proposals from La Liga clubs, whose names were not revealed, and that he has already reached an agreement with Napoli for a contract valid until June 2031. The value of the deal is 18 million euros.

Alisson Santos, it should be noted, arrived at Sporting in the second half of last season, but was only registered for this season, having already played 30 games for the team led by Rui Borges. The 23-year-old winger has been used as a secret weapon and has already scored three goals and two assists this season.
