According to the Italian press, Napoli is interested in Bastien Meupiyou. Il Mattino reports that Meupiyou is on Napoli's list, although he is not their first option. Napoli's sporting director Giovanni Manna likes Meupiyou. The club has monitored him for several months, and he could be a more financially accessible alternative. A BOLA reported on Tuesday that Alverca wants a fee of around 15 million euros to release Meupiyou.

Reports indicate that Napoli are prepared to spend €15m (£12.8m) on Bastien Meupiyou. According to O Jogo, which cites reports from France, Napoli are currently the leading contender for Meupiyou and are willing to pay €15m (£12.8m) to secure his transfer this summer. If a €15m deal is completed, Wolves would be entitled to approximately €7.5m (£6.4m) as they retained 50% of the player’s economic rights when his move to Portugal was agreed.

Il Mattino reports that Napoli is considering Bastien Meypiyou of Alverca as one of their alternatives.

SSC Naples has recently become one of the clubs interested in the 20-year-old French central defender Bastien Meupiyou. The Italian champions now rival Borussia Dortmund. It has been reported that Borussia Dortmund has been following the Alverca player for several weeks. Naples is known for a recruitment strategy focused on young talent, and it is said that the club views Meupiyou as a profile suitable for its long-term sporting project. It is reported that several European teams are interested, but no official offer has yet been disclosed. Meupiyou has been capped for France at the U18 level, joined Alverca in July 2025, and made 30 appearances in Liga Portugal during the 2025/2026 season. His contract with the Portuguese club runs until 2028. He previously moved from FC Nantes to Wolverhampton in August 2024 for a fee reported to be €5 million. His current valuation according to Transfermarkt is €7.00m.
