Conte’s Reactions to Napoli’s January Transfer Decisions

The sale of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to PSG in January significantly altered Antonio Conte’s plans for Napoli, depriving the coach of a key player. The club’s only acquisition, Okafor from Milan, is seen more as a gamble than a guaranteed replacement for the Georgian star.

Conte’s dissatisfaction became evident during today’s press conference, ahead of tomorrow’s 6 PM match against Lazio at the Olimpico. When questioned about Raspadori’s playing time and the decision to retain him in January, Conte interrupted the journalist with a sarcastic remark:

“Were we giving him away too? Just to know, you know. If we were supposed to give away Raspadori as well, guys. Come on…”

This response clearly indicates the coach’s frustration with the January transfer window, which saw the departure of a crucial player like Kvaratskhelia without adequate reinforcement.
