At a glance
- Napoli has placed Noa Lang on the transfer list, with new coach Massimiliano Allegri not including him in his plans.
- The club aims to generate transfer funds by selling players like Lukaku and Lang to support their Serie A title ambitions.
- Galatasaray, where Lang spent the second half of last season, is reportedly interested but currently focused on signing Leao.
Napoli is reportedly ready to sell Dutch winger Noa Lang, whom they acquired for 25 million Euros from PSV last season. New coach Massimiliano Allegri, following Antonio Conte, does not see Lang in his future squad. This decision aligns with Napoli's goal to build a transfer budget for their 100th-anniversary season, aiming for a Serie A championship. The club is looking to offload players like Romelu Lukaku and Lang to free up funds.
According to La Gazzetta Dello Sport, Napoli has lowered its asking price for Lang from 30 million Euros to around 25 million Euros. Ajax has shown interest in the player, but the Dutch club is reportedly seeking a further reduction in the transfer fee. Lang spent the latter half of last season on loan at Galatasaray and is rumored to want a permanent move to the Istanbul club.
However, Galatasaray is reportedly prioritizing the transfer of Rafael Leao and is only monitoring Lang's situation. The 27-year-old winger's contract with Napoli runs until 2030.
