David Neres joined Napoli for 30 million. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, David Neres was not fully convincing after his first season and his second season was affected by injuries and limited playing time. With the arrival of Zeballos, his opportunities at Napoli are further reduced.

Il Mattino reports that there are rumors from Portugal indicating possible interest from Portuguese clubs in David Neres.

Neres's value has been recognized, serving as a leverage to facilitate Kvaratskhelia's departure from Napoli. Napoli is being urged to replace Kvaratskhelia with a top player.

Due to the tactical shift to a 3-5-2 formation, Neres might see reduced playing time and could be sacrificed in the lineup.
