MiTi: Naples is expected to sign Luca for 35 million euros, but has not completely given up on Nunez

July 13, according to Italian media "Milan Sports", Naples is expected to sign Lorenzo Luca for 35 million euros, but has not completely given up Nunez.

The day after tomorrow, Naples will regroup and head to Dimaro Forgridda on Thursday. Although Naples has no urgent need, it still hopes to finalize the deal as soon as possible: the differences with Udinese have narrowed. DeLaurentis and Pozzo, the two bosses and friends, recalled all past transactions and understood how to reach a consensus.

Udinese initially insisted on a fixed price of 40 million euros, which was 10 million more than the 30 million euros proposed by Naples. But both sides found that the compromise was the right solution. Handshakes are possible at a price of 35 million euros (maybe 34 million euros + bonus).

Naples knows that Atlanta is looking for a mature and strong center with a type that matches Luca. But at this moment, Atlanta has other priorities. DeLaurentis is the same, he will deal with Buickma, who still needs to spend 30 million euros (plus 2 million euros bonus), and the particularly distracted Osmaine farce. But Naples is determined to make a transformation.

Luca knew that Naples had ever been interested in Nunez, and he had accepted the reality, but he still hoped to have the opportunity to prove that he could also join the big club. With 14 goals last season, Manner and Conte's appreciation played a key role. Both of them firmly believe that Luca still has room for improvement. He can guard the penalty area and stand on his own, act as a bridgehead for the midfielder, and solve the problem in a juggling way.

Naples has chosen to invest and will not retreat. The team needs a forward so that Lukaku can get a round break in a season when the number of games will be close to or exceed 50 games; it must have a center that can further enrich the lineup and increase offensive output. The distance between Luca and Naples is closer than expected.
