Napoli has set its sights on Francis Amuzu as a possible attacking reinforcement and has begun negotiations with Anderlecht to secure his transfer. The search for a winger has become a priority for the Italian club following Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's departure to Paris Saint-Germain in the winter market. Although the initial target was Alejandro Garnacho, the high cost of his signing has led Napoli's board to consider more affordable options.
Manchester United has valued the young Argentine at 80 million euros, a figure that Napoli considers beyond its reach since their offer does not exceed 55 million. Furthermore, the possibility of signing Karim Adeyemi has also faded as Borussia Dortmund is unwilling to let him leave midway through the season. Faced with this scenario, the Italians have stepped up their efforts for Amuzu, who has drawn interest for his ability to perform on both wings and his experience in the Belgian league.
Francis Amuzu, Napoli's New Target
Despite Napoli's approach, the latest reports suggest that Amuzu might opt for another destination, as Brazilian club Gremio is also in the running and seems to be leading the negotiation. Anderlecht, on the other hand, is willing to sell him at a considerably lower price than what United demanded for Garnacho, making him a financially feasible alternative.
With their elimination from the Coppa Italia and no European competitions on the horizon, Napoli is not under immediate pressure to sign players. However, the board continues to seek reinforcements to strengthen their squad and compensate for Kvaratskhelia's absence in the attacking line.
