According to CalcioMercato, Conte could ask for Giacomo Raspadori to be re-signed by Napoli following his sale in the summer. Raspadori departed from Napoli last summer in a deal valued at 22 million euros plus bonuses, after he contributed 6 goals to the Scudetto-winning team managed by Antonio Conte. He has not had a satisfactory first half of the season at Atletico Madrid, where Diego Simeone has often preferred other players, resulting in Raspadori playing just 406 minutes in all competitions.

An agreement had been reached between AS Roma and Atlético de Madrid for Giacomo Raspadori based on a €2 million loan with a €19 million non-obligatory purchase option. Although Atlético de Madrid has approved the deal, the final decision rests with the player, who is reportedly seeking more playing time. The situation is further complicated because both Lazio and Napoli are taking actions to interfere with the initial agreement.
