Napoli eyes Union striker Adem Zorgane as alternative to Coulibaly

According to, Napoli have confirmed their interest in 26‑year‑old Algerian midfielder Adem Zorgane, who remained at Union Saint‑Gilloise this summer despite earlier rumours of a departure. Napoli see the player as a possible replacement for Mamadou Coulibaly of AS Monaco, who is under pressure from, among others, Atlético Madrid and Newcastle.

Position in Serie A and market value

The Italian club sits ninth in Serie A after five matches with seven points. With an estimated market value of just over ten million euros, Zorgane is an affordable alternative to the expensive Coulibaly option.

Statistics and background at Union

Zorgane arrived in the summer of 2025 from Charleroi to Union Saint‑Gilloise and quickly became a regular. Last season he played 37 matches, scored four times and provided five assists. Despite interest from other clubs, he has not yet received a concrete offer from Napoli.

Napoli's interest could put the Algerian's future at Union under renewed scrutiny, but a formal bid has not yet been made. The club continues to monitor the situation as they weigh their options for the upcoming transfer window.
