Naples, under the request of coach Antonio Conte, is searching for a new starting goalkeeper this summer. Journalist Fabrizio Romano reported that the Italian champions recently made an approach for Manchester City's goalkeeper Ederson. However, after initial discussions, Naples' management quickly concluded that a deal was impossible for the Brazilian international, who is currently under contract with Manchester City until June 2026. This attempt reflects Naples' high ambitions in the goalkeeper market.

Napoli wants a new goalkeeper and plans to bring one in during this transfer window. Team coach Antonio Conte would like it to be Ederson from Manchester City. Currently, Transfermarkt estimates Ederson's market value at 20 million euros.
