Napoli Targeting RC Lens Defender Kevin Danso: Transfer Update

Verbal Agreement in Place, Contract Extension Complicates Pursuit

Amidst Napoli's quest for defensive reinforcements, a verbal agreement has been reportedly reached for the acquisition of RC Lens defender Kevin Danso. However, recent developments have cast uncertainty over the transfer.

According to Calciomercato, Napoli have secured a verbal agreement with RC Lens for the transfer of Danso. The Austrian center-back has been identified as a key target in Napoli's pursuit of a new defender to bolster their backline.

However, reports from Foot Mercato emerged that RC Lens have stepped in to complicate matters. Danso has recently signed a contract extension with the French club, tying him down for the foreseeable future. This extension serves as a potential obstacle to Napoli's transfer plans.

The pursuit of Danso by Napoli underscores their determination to reinforce their defensive line. Napoli faces fierce competition in Serie A and the UEFA Champions League, making a strong defense a crucial factor in achieving their goals.

Despite the verbal agreement, it remains to be seen whether Napoli can overcome the hurdle posed by Danso's contract extension. Negotiations are expected to continue in the coming weeks as both clubs look to reach a solution.
