Napoli pursued Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson Moraes during recent transfer discussions. The Italian side approached the Premier League champions regarding the 31-year-old Brazilian shot-stopper. Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano disclosed details of the failed acquisition attempt. Manchester City ultimately rejected the Serie A club's overtures for their established keeper. Antonio Conte has prioritized goalkeeper recruitment as part of his squad restructuring plans.
The negotiations between both clubs concluded without reaching an agreement. Napoli remains committed to securing a new goalkeeper before the transfer window closes. Romano confirmed that the southern Italian club conducted direct conversations with City officials. The unsuccessful talks demonstrate the challenge of acquiring players from top European clubs. Conte continues seeking alternative options to strengthen his goalkeeping department.
