Two individuals, De Laurentis and Della Valle, are known for their ability to handle various situations, particularly involving coffee.
In the quiet before the transfer storm, Napoli has been weighing up their options for a potential new signing. The Italian club had initially considered Nikola Kalinic as a possible replacement for Gonzalo Higuain, but this idea was put on hold due to Fiorentina's lack of interest.
Reports suggest that Napoli's President, Aurelio De Laurentiis, along with sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, and manager, Maurizio Sarri, had all supported the consideration of Kalinic. The Croatian striker, who was 29 in January, seemed like a promising prospect. However, Fiorentina's unwillingness to entertain the idea led to the plan being abandoned.
Despite this setback, Napoli has not ruled out revisiting their interest in Kalinic if a genuine opportunity arises. The club has a broad strategy in place for the market, but as of now, they have not yet approached Fiorentina regarding the Croatian striker.
It's important to note that Napoli had initially thought of acquiring a physical and technical duo. However, the club's strategy remains flexible, and they have not yet made an offer for Kalinic. The market is still closed, and no official discussions between Napoli and Fiorentina have taken place as of yet.
Interestingly, De Laurentiis and Fiorentina's co-owner, Diego Della Valle, are friends and partners. However, there have been no reports of the two meeting for a coffee regarding Kalinic. Fiorentina has maintained a firm stance against selling Kalinic to Napoli.
The previous consideration of Kalinic as a potential replacement for Higuain was not reflected in the search results related to Higuain's loss and Milik's arrival at Napoli. It appears that Milik's arrival at the club had a significant impact, as Napoli's current strategies do not include the acquisition of the Croatian striker.
As the transfer window approaches, it will be interesting to see if Napoli revisits their interest in Kalinic or if they pursue other options. For now, the club remains cautious, with a broad and flexible strategy in place.
