Napoli are still quite busy and they continue to bring in new players to strengthen the depth of their squad.
Antonio Conte seems to want to make Napoli successful again and therefore the owner must support him with requests for players needed by the club. I'm still curious about whether there will be a new midfielder that they will bring in later considering that Piotr Zieliński has already joined Inter.
Conte was a defensive midfielder as a player and as a coach, through his career in Italy to some clubs like Juventus, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Inter Milan, he prioritizes defense before counter attack or attack. So signing with potential good defenders is not surprising movement from Conte and Napoli this summer.

Last season, Napoli had problems in many areas from attack to defense and even midfield and they are trying to fix it partially this summer. In their defense, Di Lorenzo had problems too with his bad performances for Italy in Euro 2024.

Napoli is definitely a good club right now. They have some good players in the squad. I actually believe that if they were able to keep the coach that they had the success of winning the Serie A title with, they would have actually done far better in the last season as well. But that is in the past. In this last season, Napoli has performed really badly. Improvement is very much necessary. I am honestly not sure how they are going to perform in the upcoming season as well. Even though they have a very decent squad, it is actually very hard to trust them competing for the league title. Maybe they will actually be in the top four. But even that feels like is going to be a very big struggle for them. At least unless they make big changes in the squad and bring in some more better players.
