Napoli captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo has reached out to Antonio Conte to reaffirm his intention to leave the club this summer, despite the coach’s strong desire for him to stay. The 30-year-old Italian right back, after five years with Napoli, believes his time at the club has concluded and has expressed his desire to move on. His agent, Mario Giuffredi, has publicly reiterated this stance in multiple interviews.

While Di Lorenzo is reportedly eyeing a transfer to Juventus, Conte is adamant about retaining him, viewing the captain as a pivotal figure in Napoli’s future plans. According to today’s edition of Corriere dello Sport, Di Lorenzo personally contacted Conte following Italy’s loss to Spain in the European Championship to emphasize his decision to pursue an exit this summer, notwithstanding Conte’s efforts to convince him otherwise.

Despite the ongoing European tournament causing delays, the 30-year-old remains steadfast in his determination to leave Napoli, despite Conte’s belief in his significance to the club’s new project.
