Romano confirms Napoli‑Gabriel Jesus link, agents also represent Allegri

Romano Contatto Napoli‑Gabriel Jesus is genuine, Fabrizio Romano confirmed on his YouTube channel, noting the Brazilian forward shares the same agents as Massimiliano Allegri, which could open the door for the striker at the Italian club. Romano added that discussions are already underway and Napoli are keen to explore the option before the transfer window closes.

Il giornalista Fabrizio Romano posted the update on his YouTube channel, where it also appeared on Google Discover as a highlighted story. The piece was listed under the preferred sources ‘Fonti preferite’ by the outlet Stampa A− A+. Romano described the information as a confirmed rumor about Napoli’s interest in the Brazilian forward.

He explained that the new representatives of Gabriel Jesus are the same agents who manage Massimiliano Allegri. The Italian‑based agent Giovanni Branchini, known for his international reach, is among those handling the player. According to Romano, this shared representation could create an opening for the striker at Napoli.

Romano reminded listeners that Napoli must first secure outgoing transfers before signing a new attacker. He cautioned against reducing Jesus to merely a backup for Lukaku, calling such a view unfair. Instead, he suggested Jesus could serve as either the primary or secondary striker, capable of linking play.

Romano noted there are roughly twenty days left until the market closes, and several clubs are also monitoring Jesus. He said the timing of any deal will be crucial for the Brazilian forward. Romano concluded that while the interest is real, the final outcome depends on Napoli’s exit strategy and the speed of negotiations.
