Meret report: Napoli ready to let Arsenal target leave as a free agent after 7 years
Meret report: Napoli ready to let Arsenal target leave as a free agent after 7 years According to DAZN, Napoli will not agree a new contract with Alex Meret, so the goalkeeper can walk away as a free agent, with interest from Arsenal. The 28-year-old wore the gloves for both their Serie A title victories in 2023 and 2025, playing an integral part in the march towards the Scudetto.

EPA-EFE/CIRO FUSCO Negotiations have dragged on and DAZN transfer expert Orazio Accomando claims this evening that the decision has been made to simply part company. He had been purchased from hometown club Udinese in 2018 for a total of €26m, playing 212 competitive games for the Partenopei.

Napoli need to find a new goalkeeper too, although they still own Elia Caprile, who impressed on loan at Cagliari this season. They have meanwhile officially announced that the option to extend the Juan Jesus contract was activated, so the defender will remain until June 2026.

📝 McFratm shines, Di Lorenzo makes history: Napoli Scudetto ratings 🏆
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇮🇹 here. For the fourth time in its history, Napoli is the Champion of Italy. A triumph that was anything but predictable, almost like an underdog, built on the ruins of a failed season but made possible by the brave and determined choice to entrust the rebirth to Antonio Conte. With him, everything changed: mentality, technical and physical structure, ambition. And in the end, the blue people celebrated again, because Napoli is back on top of Italy. We have assigned a rating to each of the protagonists of this tricolor ride, accompanied by a motivation that tells their championship season. Now it's your turn: in the comments tell us if you agree with our evaluations... or not. The guardian of the tricolor. In a memorable season, Meret has proven to be much more than a simple goalkeeper: he has been a fixed point, a silent but determining presence between the posts. Very few mistakes, many outstanding performances, often decisive. His saves have not only protected results, but have written fundamental chapters of the Scudetto race. The numbers speak clearly: 15 clean sheets – no one better than him – and two penalties neutralized, including the very heavy one against Milan that paved the way for the final overtaking of Inter. He is the emblem of continuity, of the maturity reached and of the security transmitted to the defense. The future will tell if he will continue to defend the posts of Napoli, but there is a certainty: he was the absolute protagonist of this triumph, just as he was also in the first Scudetto of the De Laurentiis era. Two tricolors with the blues: few can say that, he can. And this will remain forever. Only one appearance, that of Bologna, but unforgettable. He hadn't played since January 5 (Monza-Cagliari), but he was very ready. Secure in the exits, precise with his feet, never in trouble. Such a debut, at such a time, was worth much more than the minutes say. The captain's redemption. He seemed close to saying goodbye, crushed by a season to forget and by an even more disappointing European Championship. The words of his agent had opened up scenarios of farewell, but Antonio Conte was clear from the start: "He's not going anywhere." A choice that proved providential. Di Lorenzo has responded like a true captain, with one of his best seasons since he wears the 📸 CARLO HERMANN - AFP or licensors
