Napoli sporting director Giovanni Manna has commented on rumors linking Roma captain Lorenzo Pellegrini with the Parthenopei.
Pellegrini’s season was less than impressive. Just one goal against Braga, no assists, many underwhelming performances and only two appearances as a starter since Ranieri took charge.
That is why there has been talk in recent days about a possible sale of the Giallorossi captain in January.
In particular, it has been said that Napoli has a strong interest in trying to interact with Giacomo Raspadori, who has barely seen the field with coach Conte.
Azzurri sporting director Giovanni Manna stepped in to clarify matters ahead of the Genoa-Napoli match, putting the market rumors to rest a bit.
“Pellegrini? “He is a player for another team and at the moment it is purely a media suggestion.”
“A different name comes up every day. It’s an unconventional exchange. “Right now I’m focusing on the stadium,” he said.
