The Napoli transfer market has officially come to life! After the arrival of Noa Lang, sporting director Giovanni Manna is not stopping: there are heavy-hitting names like Raheem Sterling, Federico Chiesa, and Jack Grealish on his notebook.
Antonio Conte has asked for another winger to complete the attacking department and bring new energy to the Italian champions. But it won't be easy: there are economic obstacles and fierce competition.

Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano confirms: Sterling has been offered to Napoli and has already said yes to the transfer. But who will really arrive? Here are all the details.
🚀 Sterling is in! But the salary is a major obstacle
Raheem Sterling is ready to relaunch himself after a dull season at Arsenal (just 496 minutes played). Chelsea has officially left him out of the project and is offering him around Europe.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the player has given full availability to transfer to Napoli: a strong signal. However, the main obstacle is the monstrous salary of 10-12 million net per season, outside the parameters of the blue club. Napoli is thinking about it, but a big economic effort or a creative loan would be needed.
🇮🇹 Chiesa: low-cost opportunity, but guarantees are needed
Federico Chiesa is out of Arne Slot's technical project at Liverpool and is looking for a new home. Napoli could take advantage of it: the cost of the card is not high and the salary can be worked on with bonuses.
Conte is a great admirer of his, but there are doubts about his physical condition and continuity. If in shape, Chiesa would be a great hit for Serie A and the blues, but medical and motivational guarantees are needed.
🇬🇧 Grealish, an (almost) impossible dream
Jack Grealish is an absolute talent, but at Manchester City, he is now out of Guardiola's radar after the summer arrivals. Napoli has sounded out the ground, but the 17 million annual salary is an insurmountable mountain.
The charm is there, the idea too, but for now, it's more of a dream than a real negotiation. Unless a loophole opens up for a loan with part of the salary paid by the English.
🧊 Ndoye moves away: Nottingham Forest is pressing
Conte's favorite remains Dan Ndoye of Bologna, but the situation is complicated: the Emilians are asking for 45-50 million and Nottingham Forest is ready to meet the demands.
For this reason, Napoli is exploring alternatives: Grealish, Chiesa, Sterling… all possible scenarios but linked to economic and strategic evaluations that Manna is analyzing with attention.
🎯 Manna is studying the big hit
Napoli is in full offensive revolution and sporting director Manna wants to give Conte a dream winger. Fabrizio Romano confirms that Sterling is the hottest name of the moment, but everything will depend on the salary margins.
Chiesa is more accessible, Grealish is suggestive. The market is long and plot twists are around the corner. Keep an eye on the next assault!
