Antonio Conte Targets Arsenal Defender for January Move

Recognizing the need to elevate their squad in pursuit of the Scudetto title, Antonio Conte and Napoli are actively seeking to bolster their defense

Currently, the team managed by Antonio Conte is showing interest in a player from Arsenal.

Napoli is prepared to make a significant push to succeed Inter Milan in the Serie A trophy race.

So far, the beginning of the current season has been thrilling for a club that dominated the Italian championship in 2023, and they are optimistic about replicating that success this season.

To enhance their defensive options, the club led by Aurelio De Laurentiis is exploring possibilities for this position.

According to information from La Repubblica, Antonio Conte is assessing candidates, with Jakub Kiwior (24 years old) emerging as a potential target.

The young defender has yet to make his mark at Arsenal, where his contract runs until mid-2028.

As it stands, Napoli is considering the possibility of acquiring the defender during the upcoming winter transfer window. However, they may need to make a “sacrifice.”

This sacrifice involves parting ways with Juan Jesus, whose contract is set to expire in the summer.

It remains to be seen if they will agree to let the Brazilian leave sooner than anticipated.

Ultimately, Arsenal will have the final say regarding Kiwior’s future, and the Neapolitan side is hopeful for a deal in January.
