EnderbyFox Posted 19 July 2023 Share Posted 19 July 2023 Napoli interested, not sure on the source? https://www.footmercato.net/a3162684731547219902-mercato-naples-veut-faire-le-joli-coup-boubakary-soumare Quote According to our information, Napoli are very interested in the idea of recovering him. Rudi Garcia is crazy about the player whose profile he appreciates. Very positive talks have already taken place about him and the 2023 Italian champions have made it known that they are interested in signing him. A club with which he could play on all fronts. Another resident of Serie A to be on the spot: the Torino . No doubt other clubs will come forward for the player under contract until 2026. It will however remain to know the asking price of Leicester, who are known to be tough in business. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloudFox Posted 19 July 2023 Share Posted 19 July 2023 Did someone mention that he did want a move away? It would be a shame to lose him, as I reckon Maresca could make a real player out of him. 6 minutes ago, Koke said: Another Italian club who'll pay in installments over 38 years. **** that. Napoli aren't Torino though. And they've just sold Min-Jae to Bayern for £30m+. Not like they're lacking cash. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post indierich06 Posted 19 July 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 19 July 2023 Everyone talks like he's trash, I saw someone saying the other day that he wasn't good enough for Sunday League (😂) but at the end of the day, he was a huge part of Lille's success and I think a mixture of homesickness and the general toxic environment at this club has stalled his career. Fully expect him to be one of those who go on somewhere else and have a decent career. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully expect him to be one of those who go on somewhere else and have a decent career. The intensity of the Prem looked like it was the issue. The slower pace of the game in Italy might suit him. There's definitely a good player there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Bakayoko and Anguissa, both heavily criticised in England but then played for Milan and Napoli in successful sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted 19 July 2023 Share Posted 19 July 2023 One of the reasons I liked the profile of the Soumare signing was he was 22 and had just played as a regular for a side that had beat PSG to the title. Even when these signings somewhat fail these players still have decent reputations and you can get a good percentage of your money back. Monaco bid €15m for him last year and I'd expect we would get a similar fee from Napoli. Rudi Garcia was manager of Lyon when Lille won the title so I imagine he quite rated him and judges him for his performance for Lille rather than Leicester. These profile signings are much better than signing mid to late 20's players who are nothing special but adequate like Vestergaard, Praet, Ghezzal, Ward, etc. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore_94 Posted 19 July 2023 Share Posted 19 July 2023 Napoli seem to like getting centre mids who have previously shown to be crap in the Prem Bakayoko, Anguissa, Ndombele and now Soumare - Anguissa is the only one who following a loan they signed permanently They just got some decent money for Kim Min-Jae so hopefully they try for a permanent deal rather than a loan Or at least make it an obligation to buy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 19 July 2023 Share Posted 19 July 2023 Rudi Garcia likely knows him from his time working in Ligue 1 on and off. Napoli aren't as much of a shit house when it comes to signings as some Seria A teams. Hopefully get a decent fee for him, they will have earnt a fair amount for winning Serie A. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stadt Posted 19 July 2023 Share Posted 19 July 2023 Even if it's £10m, sell, sell, sell. We already had our fingers burnt trying to hold out for more. He'll still be on big money, he's a saleable asset and he'll never be the player we wanted him to be. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
