Under Antonio Conte, Napoli have begun their reconstruction operation after a difficult 2023-2024 season punctuated by a disappointing 9th place in Serie A. With a view to building a squad capable of competing on all fronts, the Italian coach has identified several reinforcements including Leonardo Spinazzola. Free since the end of his contract with AS Roma, the versatile 31-year-old defender signed a two-year contract with the Partenopei on Wednesday.

Not selected for Euro 2024 with the Squadra Azzura, reigning European champion and eliminated in the round of 16 by Switzerland, the native of Foligno will try to get back on track in Naples, he who has struggled to find his best level since his terrible Achilles tendon injury in 2021. Note that Rafa Marin and Alessandro Buongiorni should soon follow in his footsteps.
