Napoli are inching closer to securing the services of Leonardo Spinazzola, the former Roma left-back. Following a recent meeting between the club and the player’s representatives, the two parties are reportedly nearing an agreement, though some details still need to be ironed out.
The 30-year-old Italian international, who recently parted ways with Roma, has been in negotiations with the Neapolitan club. Sky Sport Italia report how a crucial meeting took place on Tuesday, as scheduled, bringing the sides closer to a deal.
Napoli is reportedly working on offering Spinazzola a two-year contract that would keep him at the club until June 30, 2026. The experienced fullback is expected to bolster the squad under the new management of Antonio Conte.
In his final season with Roma, Spinazzola demonstrated his value by featuring in 36 matches across Serie A, UEFA Europa League, and Coppa Italia. During this time, he contributed one goal and four assists, showcasing his attacking prowess from the left flank.
While the negotiations are progressing positively, the final agreement is yet to be reached. Both parties seem eager to complete the deal, with Napoli looking to strengthen their defensive options for the upcoming season.
Spinazzola’s potential move to Napoli comes after Roma officially announced his departure following the expiration of his contract. This development has given Napoli a boost in their pursuit of the player.
