Insigne is one of the best wingers in the world. Napoli’s best player by far. Mertens has a lot more goals this season but anyone who has watched Napoli a few times even can see that Insigne is most influential. Against Juve recently he was the main player creating chances and trying to win the game.
Insigne also had 18 league goals last season so it’s not like he can’t score.
Those saying he’s not fast clearly don’t watch him.
He has a great understanding with Jorginho. I can also understand him wanting to finally seek a new challenge as well especially if Napoli win Serie A.
Talks of Koulibaly leaving as well. Reina looks like he’s going to Milan. Napoli’s best players are aging with Callejon being 31 and Mertens and Hamsik both turning 31 by summer. Albiol also turning 33 this year.
Like it or not it looks like Napoli has reached it peak. Usually I would be surprised Insigne wants to leave but when you look at the big picture it makes a lot of sense.
I can imagine Napoli will ask £70m+ for Insigne.
Lots of interest in Ghoulam as well, depending on his ACL recovery.
Story today linking Hysaj with a move away too to rags or chelsea. Sounds like a Roma-esque firesale is going to happy at Napoli.
