Napoli have re-opened the talks to sign Nahitan Nandez from Cagliari. They already tried last summer, but his price tag was too high. While that has not significantly decreased, the Sardinians could accept a different formula now.
While the player has continued to perform with the usual effort, he and his agent often voiced the desire to transfer to a bigger club. According to Corriere dello Sport, the Partenopei love his versatility. They do not have an immediate need at the position, but they could decide to bring him in anyway. His addition would allow them to use a three-man midfield more often. He could also feature out wide.
Napoli reached out to Cagliari to ask for the conditions of the potential deal. Like in other instances, the Azzurri can at most offer a loan with option to buy. The Sardinians have set a €20M price tag for the Uruguayan international. However, they could end up settling for a temporary move with an obligation to redeem him. Torino are after him as well. Inter would probably be his preferred destination, but they have not sent any inkling for January, Gianluca Di Marzio informs. The Azzurri bigwigs are big fans of Nandez in general.
If they came to terms with Cagliari, Napoli could part ways with Diego Demme in the role, Corriere dello Sport informs. Stanislav Lobotka has grown a lot under Luciano Spalletti. And activating the €15M option to permanently sign André-Franck Zambo Anguissa from Fulham has quickly become a no-brainer.
