Now coach of Naples, Rudi Garcia obviously wants to recruit players he knows well. After Maxime Lopez, it’s Lucas Tousart’s turn to appear on the shelves of the Italian champions.
Chosen by Aurelio de Laurentiis to succeed Luciano Spalletti, who had just brought the Scudetto to Naples, Rudi Garcia knows that the expectation is enormous and that the patience of the supporters will be limited. This does not prevent the former coach of OL and OM from wanting to have a very Franco-French transfer window, even if it means confusing Neapolitan fans. In recent days, we have been talking about Garcia’s very keen interest in Maxime Lopez, whom he had under his orders in Marseille and who makes Sassuolo happy. But, this Sunday, the Italian specialized media TMW claims that the technician of the Italian champions wants to bring in Lucas Tousart, whom he has this time led to Olympique Lyonnais. And, the file is progressing rather slowly.

Journalist for TuttoMercatoWeb, Daniel Ecellieri explains that Napoli and Hertha Berlin have already started discussions regarding Lucas Tousart. Under contract for another two years with the German club, relegated after finishing last in the Bundesliga, the 26-year-old midfielder is very tempted by an adventure in Serie A. However, the operation is currently on hold since the leaders of Napoli are offering a simple loan from Lucas Tousart, where their Berlin counterparts want an exchange including Diego Demme, the German player who still has a year of contract with Naples, as well as a sum of money. A proposal firmly refused by the Italian champion, knowing that Aurelio de Laurentiis is not one to laugh when it comes to talking about the transfer window. Rudi Garcia could therefore have to look at a player other than the former Lyonnais.
