Romano: Napoli blocks Lang Andr&agrave move, he heads to Genova

Journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Napoli have not given the OK for the sale of Dutch striker Noa Lang, and that Lang Andrà will travel with the squad to their opening Serie A match in Genova. The club says the decision will be revisited after the first game.

Il giornalista delivered the update via his YouTube channel, posting the news on the Calciomercato feed. The report appeared in Stampa and opened with the symbols A&minus and A+, underscoring the source’s format.

Several clubs have shown interest: Galatasaray have been calling for days but are not the first choice, Atalanta are pursuing a loan deal, and Ajax also only proposes a loan. No definitive offer has emerged yet.

Napoli are not pushing for a sale and will only let Lang leave if the right offer arrives. The club hinted that a replacement could be a forward such as Gabriel Jesus or a pure attacking winger.

The Dutch forward is expected to be part of the Napoli roster for the first match against Genoa, after which his future will be decided next week. Napoli’s strong pre‑season performance was cited as a reason for retaining him for now.

Should an appropriate bid materialise, Napoli will reassess their options, but until then Lang remains with the team in Genova.
