On Monday it was pointed out from Italy that the Atlético de Madrid was interested in Lorenzo Insigne, attacker of Naples 30-year-old who is contesting the Eurocup, and with a leading role, with the Azzurra team. One of the many news that comes out in summer, with the teams watching and touching a multitude of players to make up the squads for the next campaign.
And after Atlético's interest was related to Insigne, at Naples they began to be pissed off about the matter. They already had the fly behind their ear, but now, everything fits them. Because Insigne has had a renewal offer from the Italian entity for a long time. And so far he has not attended.
Contract ends in 2022, hence the rush of the Neapolitan president, By Laurentiis, for expanding that link, otherwise, in January you will be able to negotiate freely with any team. And that would be a very hard blow for the club, which already values transferring him in this market, although they are asking for 40 million euros. A high amount to have only one more year of contract and that Atlético could not face at the moment.
DE LAURENTIIS, UNLIMITED
In any case, By Laurentiis will not give away anything. He already showed it a few months ago with the Polish Milik, who also refused to renew and was even removed from the team for a few months, until in January he was loaned to Marseille.
Lawrence Insigne has been in the Naples and, after several assignments, he returned to the team in 2012 to be an important player. In the last season he played 48 games in which he scored 19 goals and gave eleven assists. He has been international on more than 40 occasions with Italy, with whom he is now shining in the Eurocup.
