According to Calciomercato, Luciano Spalletti has identified the Spanish goalkeeper as a perfect long-term replacement for David Ospina.
Ospina was a permanent first-team fixture at Napoli for years. Yet, he decided to call time on his career at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona to link up with Saudi Arabian outfit Al-Nassr this summer. The Colombian’s departure left Alex Meret as the only dependable option between the sticks. So the Partenopei are in the market for a new shot-stopper.
Hellbent on reinforcing his squad down the final stretch of the summer transfer window, Aurelio De Laurentiis has stepped up talks for Arrizabalaga. The Spaniard has experienced an epic downfall since swapping Athletic Bilbao for Chelsea in 2018.
