According to Nicolò Schira, Davide Calabria wants to return to Serie A and has been offered to two clubs. Gianluca Di Marzio reveals that Calabria is on Napoli's list. Three Serie A clubs have asked for official information regarding his transfer status. A significant obstacle is making a deal extremely difficult, with the main problem being Calabria's salary demands. He is asking for a contract worth 2,000,000 euros per year, which is considered high for mid-level Italian teams. The gap between offers and his demands has led to a temporary standstill. Nicolò Schira notes that a return to Italy will remain difficult unless Calabria lowers his demands.

Napoli is considering bringing 29-year-old Italian international Davide Calabria back to Italy. The club is seeking a full-back following an injury to Giovanni Di Lorenzo, and Calabria is one of several alternative options. A former Milan player who transferred to Panathinaikos in the summer, Calabria is on a list of backup targets should the club's attempt to sign primary target Gabriele Zappa fail. Other alternatives being considered include Ignace Van der Brempt of Como and Fulham's Timothy Castagne. The defender has 7 caps for Italy and has made 13 appearances in the Super League 1 this season, scoring one goal and providing two assists. His contract with the Greek club runs until June 2028. His current market value is €4.50m, according to Transfermarkt. Lazio and Fiorentina have also been recently linked with him. Before his move to Greece, reports in October 2024 suggested Milan's asking price for a January sale was between €3 million and €4 million.
