The winter transfer window could bring significant moves for Napoli, which aims to maintain its competitiveness in Serie A after an impressive first half of the season under the leadership of Antonio Conte. The imminent departure of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to Paris Saint-Germain, in a deal worth between $75 and $85 million, forces the Neapolitan club to seek a high-quality replacement capable of matching the Georgian star, a key figure in the club’s third Scudetto.

Among the names on Napoli's radar is Alejandro Garnacho, a young prospect from Manchester United. According to Sportitalia and confirmed by AS, the Argentine winger, just 20 years old and holding a Spanish passport, fits perfectly into Napoli’s profile thanks to his talent, youth, and potential. Garnacho has recorded eight goals and four assists in 29 matches this season, despite starting only ten times in the Premier League.

Manchester United values the player at $75 million, but Napoli, which recently finalized the signing of Scott McTominay from the Red Devils, hopes to negotiate a lower price. Aurelio De Laurentiis, the club’s president, has shown no hesitation in making ambitious bets on young talent, as he did in 2020 with Victor Osimhen, for whom he paid $53 million.

Napoli, currently leading Serie A, has invested decisively during this summer transfer window, spending $160 milliondespite not competing in European tournaments. With this ambitious approach, Garnacho has become the club’s top target to maintain its competitive level and offset the impact of Kvaratskhelia’s departure.

As negotiations progress, Napoli fans dream of seeing a new young talent leading the attack of a team that, under Conte’s guidance, aims to sustain its dominance in Italy and regain prominence in Europe.
