Napoli Secure €28m Deal for PSV Winger Noa Lang
Napoli have reached a verbal agreement with PSV Eindhoven to sign Dutch international winger Noa Lang for €28 million, including a sell-on clause, as the Serie A club bolsters its squad under manager Antonio Conte. The transfer, announced by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, marks a significant coup for Napoli, with final details on payment structure still being finalized. Lang, 26, has expressed a clear preference for Napoli, where he will earn €2.8 million net per season.

The versatile forward, who joined PSV in 2023, showcased his attacking prowess last season, scoring 14 goals and providing 12 assists in 44 appearances. His dynamic style, characterized by 2.1 key passes per game in the 2023 UEFA Champions League, aligns seamlessly with Conte’s emphasis on rapid transitions and disciplined structure, as detailed in recent tactical analyses of the Napoli setup.

This move follows Napoli’s active transfer window, contrasting with the market’s 15% fee inflation reported by Deloitte’s Football Money League. Lang’s arrival, delayed from a potential January switch due to PSV’s Eredivisie title pursuit, underscores Napoli’s strategic planning as they aim to reclaim dominance in Italian football. Official documentation is expected soon, signaling the deal’s imminent completion.
