Napoli weigh keeping or selling Vergara as clubs circle

SSC Napoli face a defining decision on 23‑year‑old midfielder Antonio Vergara. His valuation has risen to at least €30 million after an impressive season under Antonio Conte. Tottenham Hotspur, Atalanta, AS Roma and Como have all expressed interest, with Como the most prominently linked Serie A club. Additional Premier League clubs are expected to join the race in the coming weeks. The club values Vergara’s technical quality and training personality as a potential cornerstone of a new project. The alternative is to cash in on a substantial profit, a choice that may hinge on the identity of the yet‑to‑be‑confirmed coach. Vergara scored his first Serie A goal against ACF Fiorentina at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on 31 January 2026. The image was captured by Francesco Pecoraro.
