Napoli have successfully reached an agreement with Leonardo Spinazzola, the former Roma player who recently became a free agent. The Italian full-back, who had been searching for a new club after his contract with Roma expired, has caught the attention of Antonio Conte, Napoli’s new manager known for his tactical use of wing-backs.
According to Sky Sports, a two-year contract has been finalized for Spinazzola, who was a standout performer for Italy during Euro 2020 until his unfortunate injury in the quarter-final match against Belgium. This move to Napoli represents an opportunity for Spinazzola to revitalize his career after spending the last couple of seasons in a reduced role at Roma.
The acquisition of Spinazzola aligns with Conte’s tactical preferences, as the manager often employs a system that heavily relies on dynamic full-backs. Spinazzola’s ability to contribute both defensively and offensively makes him an ideal fit for Conte’s style of play.
This transfer marks a significant addition to Napoli’s squad as they prepare for the upcoming season under their new manager. For Spinazzola, it offers a fresh start and the chance to regain the form that made him one of Italy’s most exciting players during the European Championship.
