Claudio Lotito sternly addressed the recent chatter about Lorenzo Insigne joining Lazio, as the winger is attempting to leave Toronto FC.

Former Napoli Captain Dreams Of Returning To Naples Toward The End Of His Career

Toronto FC veteran Lorenzo Insigne admits he dreams of returning to Napoli in the twilight of his illustrious playing career. Before departing his homeland for Major League Soccer in 2022, he spoke about staying at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona for life.

Insigne joined Napoli as a 15-year-old. After coming through the academy, he became the club’s captain, making over 400 appearances for the Partenopei. However, after failing to win the Scudetto with his boyhood side, he left Italy two years ago to link up with Toronto.

As he approaches the autumn of his career, Insigne has become nostalgic. He would return to Napoli in a heartbeat. But it’s up to Antonio Conte to send him an invitation.

At Toronto, I am very well,Insigne told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli.Now, the season is over and I am on vacation in Naples.

I wanted to thank the Napoli fans for the messages, I have a resounding love for this city. I feel good at Toronto, but Naples is my home, I always take my vacations here.

You can’t live without Naples. If Conte called me? In Naples, you can’t say no. If he called me, I’ll already be there in Castel Volturno.

However, it’s hard to imagine Insigne’s dream coming true. Plagued with injuries, the former Napoli winger only scored four times in 23 games in 2024. He only started half of Toronto’s MLS fixtures this calendar year, ending the season without a goal in the club’s last 13 league games after June 15.
