Napoli hires Allegri as head coach on three‑year contract

Napoli confirmed Massimiliano Allegri as its new head coach, with the appointment announced by club president Aurelio De Laurentiis. Allegri signed a multi‑year agreement that runs until June 2029 and includes a salary of €4.5 million per season plus bonuses tied to Champions League qualification and a possible Serie A title.

The club highlighted Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund as the focal point of Allegri’s project and emphasized a restructuring of the squad. After recent high‑profile signings, Napoli aims to balance its books through player sales before targeting further reinforcements such as goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario and a right‑back. The new coach is tasked with restoring Napoli to the top of Italian football and re‑establishing the team as a regular contender in Europe.
