Serie A side Napoli are facing the possibility of losing several players in the next few months and one of them could be Stanislav Lobotka.
Tuttomercatoweb report that the midfielder could be a candidate to depart at the end of the campaign. This is mainly due to considerations regarding his contract, which runs out in the summer of 2027.
While Napoli do have the option to renew it for another season, that isn’t certain. In fact, the possibility if far-fetched, mainly because of the Partenopei’s concerns over his high salary and ongoing fitness troubles.
A renewal will mean that Lobotka might want higher figures, which Napoli do not want to guarantee. They would much rather sign a replacement, hand him a lower wage and build with a younger squad as the title winner won’t even hand them a capital gain in the future due to his age.
Exit will be sensible
While Lobotka does well when he plays, he has stopped being too reliable because of his fitness, which has become worse in recent seasons. This should be the biggest concern for Napoli, who have had to make do with without them – as they are now. These issues will keep growing, as the players grows older.
