Napoli completes €30 million sale of Miguel Gutierrez to Bayer Leverkusen

Miguel Gutierrez Bayer Leverkusen Jesper Lindstrom Schalke loan Napoli transfer market

Napoli has agreed to sell left‑back Miguel Gutierrez to Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen for a total fee of €30 million, matching the club’s valuation. The transfer, confirmed by multiple sources, will see Gutierrez replace departing Alejandro Grimaldo in Leverkusen’s squad and provides Napoli with a sizable cash influx to fund further signings.

At the same time, Danish midfielder Jesper Lindstrom is moving to German club Schalke 04 on a free loan with a €5 million buy‑option and performance‑related bonuses. The loan deal also frees Napoli’s wage bill while offering potential add‑on payments if Schalke avoid relegation.

The incoming funds are expected to support Napoli’s market activity, including targets such as defender Federico Gatti and forward Costantino Favasuli, as the club reshapes its roster for the upcoming season.
