Napoli's Allegri reshapes squad amid player contract talks

Napoli is reviewing the futures of several costly forwards. The club must decide quickly on Romelu Lukaku, whose salary weighs heavily on the payroll, and on Lorenzo Lucca, acquired for around €40 million last summer, with a loan move being considered as a possible solution.

Mid‑season manager Massimiliano Allegri is also working to retain midfielder André‑Frank Zambo Anguissa, whose contract runs until 2027, by emphasizing dialogue and confidence after a season hampered by injuries.

Club journalists note that Allegri’s approach creates a lighter atmosphere compared with the previous regime and stress the need for broader youth development in Italian football, while also praising forward Vergara’s recent performances.
