Napoli faces transfer challenges as Allegri prepares for arrival
Summary

Massimiliano Allegri is poised to take over as Napoli's manager, pending resolution of his Milan contract. Significant concerns await him, particularly regarding Romelu Lukaku, who caused friction last season by staying in Belgium during recovery. Allegri's admiration for Lukaku could lead to potential discussions, though clarity on his situation might not emerge until after the World Cup. Additionally, the club is focused on the revival of Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa, who struggled after injury, and the goalkeeping battle remains unsettled between Alex Meret and Vanja Milinkovic-Savic.
