Napoli football club ushers in a new era as Giovanni Manna steps in as the new sporting director following his departure from Juventus. With discussions revolving around the next head coach, Napoli president prefers Gian Piero Gasperini of Atalanta, while Manna advocates for Antonio Conte. The decision-making process may take time due to ongoing commitments and contractual obligations of the desired coaches.
The potential coaches also include Stefano Pioli, who has prior success with Milan. Negotiations could be prolonged as Pioli still has a year left on his contract with the Rossoneri. Vincenzo Italiano remains a contender as well. Manna’s meeting with Federico Pastorello, agent of Alex Meret, suggests decisions regarding the goalkeeper’s future are pending. Napoli aims to rejuvenate the team and the city with the new appointments, promising excitement in the upcoming seasons.
