Raffaele Auriemma spoke on Radio CRC during the broadcast “Si Gonfia la Rete” Gerald Sagoe, agent of Pope Diop, who spoke about the possibility of seeing the young Senegalese at Napoli: “I cannot be certain of this interest of the Napoli, but it wouldn't surprise me because the player has a great future ahead of him. There have been many contacts with important English clubs and it wouldn't surprise me if among the interested clubs there was also Napoli".
“If it can be the right profile to replace Lobotka?
I think it could be. We have to wait, the market seems to be moving slowly.
There are several clubs interested in the boy, we will have to understand if Napoli will be serious about buying him, but the boy has the calibre to cover that role".
“We are still in contact with Napoli, the negotiation is ongoing, we are still in the early stages, but we are still in contact with Napoli. The fact that other African players have had luck and adapted quickly can be an element in Napoli's favor.
But we have to wait and see how it ends."
“Would Diop be happy to play for Napoli? Absolutely yes, he would be happy to be able to play for Napoli – concluded the agent -. Is there any other club that would make him even happier?
What I can say is that he would be very happy to play in Naples and it would be a great option for his future."
