According to TyC Sports, Napoli is tracking Exequiel Zeballos. Zeballos is under contract with Boca Juniors until December 31, 2026. The renewal of his contract is a priority for Boca Juniors, and he has entered talks for an extension. There have been no updates yet on the talks, and if he does not sign by June, interested clubs could make an approach starting in July. President Juan Román Riquelme wants to prevent this from happening, and for this reason, discussions between Zeballos and the club have begun.

TYC has provided an update regarding the contract negotiations between Boca and their 23-year-old Argentinian winger, Exequiel Zeballos. The Boca board is in negotiations with Zeballos's representation to extend his contract, which expires on December 31 of this year. The conversations are in an initial stage, and the board, led by Juan Román Riquelme, wishes to know the requirements of Zeballos and his representatives before making an offer. A potential offer would include an increased salary, a contract extension, and a release clause higher than the current one of 20 million dollars. Boca's objective is to complete the renewal before July 1, the date from which Zeballos would be able to negotiate with any club as a free agent. Zeballos joined Boca Juniors in July 2020 and, according to Transfermarkt, has a current market value of €7.00m. In the ongoing 2025/2026 Torneo Apertura season, he has made 3 appearances, scoring 1 goal and providing 1 assist. He has received 16 caps for the Argentina U17 team, scoring 3 goals, and has been linked with clubs such as CSKA Moskva and Spartak Moskva.
