Juventus and Napoli consider player swap deal involving Gatti and Lobotka

Summary

Juventus and Napoli are reportedly discussing a potential swap deal involving Federico Gatti and Stanislav Lobotka, according to Calciomercato. Napoli's Luciano Spalletti is aiming to reform his midfield, while Gatti has fallen out of favor at Juventus. Spalletti's interest in Lobotka stems from the midfielder's key role in Napoli's previous title-winning season. Lobotka's contract is set to expire next summer, complicating negotiations as Napoli may prefer retaining him. Allegri, Juventus' coach, is keen on Gatti to strengthen Napoli's defense alongside Buongiorno and Rrahmani.
