Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis says the club’s main focus this summer is reducing a large squad rather than making major additions. Speaking ahead of the new season, he emphasizes that the team has received a high volume of transfer inquiries and offers for players, citing figures of roughly 200 offers. De Laurentiis frames the coming window as an exercise in streamlining the roster, with departures likely to follow as negotiations progress.
He also discusses the club’s appointment of Massimiliano Allegri as head coach, stating that he expects a good working relationship between himself and Allegri. De Laurentiis portrays the hiring as a step that will fit smoothly into Napoli’s plans, suggesting the coaching change will align with the squad-management approach.
Across the coverage, both outlets report De Laurentiis’ core messages: squad trimming is the priority, the club is in active talks regarding player movement, and he expresses confidence that the new managerial relationship will run well.
