Riccardo Calafiori Transfer from Arsenal to Napoli
Arsenal maintain their position regarding Riccardo Calafiori's future and do not plan to sell the Italian defender despite growing interest from several major clubs in Serie A. Arsenal signed Calafiori in July 2024 on a contract that expires in June 2029 and are reportedly unwilling to consider offers for the player in the upcoming summer transfer window because they consider him part of their long-term plans. Napoli are monitoring the 23-year-old's situation, along with Inter Milan, AC Milan, and Juventus, according to TEAMtalk. There has also been reported interest from Chelsea, but a transfer between the London rivals is considered highly unlikely. The player is not actively seeking a transfer and is settled in London, a situation which strengthens Arsenal's position. His completed transfer from Bologna to Arsenal was for a fee of €45 million. According to reports from March 2025, Arsenal's asking price was between €75 million and €80 million. A separate report from May 2025 suggested that AC Milan believed a deal could be completed for approximately €35 million.
