Simone Verdi says no to Napoli: negotiations reopened with Deulofeu and Moura of Paris St. Germain

Naples. Simone Verdi says no to Naples, he will remain in Bologna. The decision of the rossoblù striker was communicated yesterday evening to Naples who had already reached an agreement with the Emilian team for an immediate transfer. The contract was already ready but he decided to refuse in order to remain a protagonist in Bologna at least until the end of the season. Verdi's refusal reopens the other avenues of the Azzurri market to find a backup in attack, explicitly requested by Maurizio Sarri. Giuntoli will now return to the trail that leads to Gerard Deulofeu, 23 years old from Barcelona, ​​but in the last few hours the name of Lucas Moura, 26 years old, has also emerged, who could leave Paris Saint Germain with a onerous loan of three million euros or permanently.

“It wasn’t a no to Napoli. I was tempted by such a big offer. I thought about it but I didn’t want to leave this club in January: I’m staying in Bologna with a smile”. The striker Simone Verdi explains to Sky the reasons for his refusal to move from Bologna to Napoli in January. “Now comes the best part, I didn’t take a train, I made my choice calmly and I’m very calm”.
