Napoli squad reduction and transfer activity

Entities: Giovanni Manna · Giovanni Simeone · Napoli Football Club · Monza Football Club · Michael Folorunsho

Overview

In late July 2026, Italian club Napoli announced a significant squad overhaul, selling six players for a total of €16.7 million. Departures included Giovanni Simeone to Torino (€7.2 million), Alessandro Zanoli to Udinese (€5 million), and the combined move of Alessio Zerbin and Luis Hasa to Frosinone (€4.5 million), alongside loan exits for Claudio Turie and Salvatore Ferrante. Director of football Giovanni Manna said the sales are part of a plan to achieve break‑even finances, with further sales such as Jesper Lindström and Jens Cajuste expected. Napoli also drew interest from Monza for midfielder Michael Folorunsho, valuing him at €8‑10 million and open to a loan that could become permanent based on performance targets.
