Napoli is preparing for the January transfer window to strengthen the team for the second half of the season.
After a busy summer that included signing Rasmus Hojlund from Manchester United, Napoli has won eleven games, placing them third with 34 points.
Hojlund, who scored ten goals for United last season, has netted nine times for Napoli this campaign.
With an ambition to win Serie A, Hojlund’s performance could be crucial for the team’s success this year.
While he is key, Napoli may also seek additional players to bolster their lineup and enhance their chances of success.
At the same time, the club aims to retain their core players to maintain overall quality.
However, Napoli faces a potential setback, as an Italian journalist reports that a former Manchester United player may want to leave the club this January.
According to journalist Paolo Paganini on Tutto Mercato Web, Romelu Lukaku could depart Napoli due to seeking more playing time.
Lukaku, who joined Napoli in August 2024, has made 38 appearances and scored 14 goals.
During this time, he helped the club win Serie A and was on the bench for the Super Cup final against Bologna.
Given that Lukaku has not featured this season and scored 14 goals last season, he might pursue more opportunities elsewhere.
If that happens, Napoli’s reliance on strikers like Hojlund could increase, along with their urgency to sign another forward.
