Napoli 'Looking At' Dovbyk

Napoli is considering the acquisition of Artem Dovbyk, the Ukrainian striker from Roma, as a potential replacement for Lorenzo Lucca, who is rumored to be transferring to Benfica. Dovbyk is considered an excellent opportunity and does not appear to be in Roma's main plans. Napoli coach Antonio Conte and sporting director Giovanni Mana have shown particular interest in the 28-year-old striker. The transfer is expected to take place on loan, but a permanent purchase of the player is not ruled out. The need for a new striker arose due to the possible departure of Lucca, who is a key member of the team. Dovbyk, with his experience and skills, is considered ideal to fill the gap in Napoli's attacking line. The matter is at an advanced stage and developments are expected in the coming days. Napoli hopes to complete Dovbyk's transfer as soon as possible in order to strengthen its attacking force for the rest of the league.
