Frank Anguissa started well and looked good in the first three games, but then he missed two games with a minor thigh injury, which was exacerbated when he briefly came on the bench against Fiorentina at Napoli.
His contract extension has been a hot topic for more than a year as negotiations continue to lag. Director Giovanni Manna delivers a speech Daznin Before the final game (via media collection).
“If we can reach a reasonable agreement, that would be great. Otherwise, parting ways is not a problem. He has given a lot for us and he had serious physical problems last year.”
according to arrive morningAnguissa and his entourage were annoyed when Napoli opted to unilaterally extend the option for two years instead of negotiating a new deal and the pay rise that would come with it after last winning the Serie A title.
The negotiations are completely deadlocked at this stage. The midfielder is seeking a three-year contract with a significant increase in wages from his current €2.7 million. If he goes to the Middle East league, his salary can easily be doubled. The two sides differed widely on the numbers. The midfielder must prove he can stay fit and bargain for a fresh start.
Our thoughts on Napoli and Anguissa
They’ve dragged their feet on the matter in the past, but their caution now makes sense as he’s underperforming in 2026 due to injury issues. Given their current stingier policy on wages and his age, a deal would be more surprising than an exit, possibly even in January if they can get a decent sum of money for him rather than risk losing him for nothing.
