According to Kiss Kiss Napoli, Napoli's sporting director Giovanni Manna has initiated exploratory contacts with the entourage of Nicolò Zaniolo, confirming concrete interest. The club is active in the transfer market while awaiting clarification on the coaching situation, taking steps to avoid being unprepared due to competition from other big Italian clubs. Antonio Conte has always admired Zaniolo, and Manna had previously sought the player during his time at Juventus.

Napoli has become interested in Galatasaray's Nicolò Zaniolo, who is on loan at Udinese. A potential transfer in June is being considered, and a formal meeting has occurred between Napoli's sporting director, Manna, and the player's agent, Claudio Vigorelli. During the meeting, Manna gathered information about the conditions for a potential deal. According to Italian press reports, Udinese has an option to purchase Zaniolo for 10 million euros. These same reports indicate that Antonio Conte likes the player's profile and that Milan is also interested. Napoli is closely monitoring the developments.
