Napoli are waiting for Chelsea to give the all-clear for Benoit Badiashile on loan with option to buy, but meanwhile Costantino Favasuli arrives from Catanzaro for €7.5m.
The Partenopei were already short on defenders this season, a situation that only worsened with a new injury to Luca Marianucci.

A medial collateral ligament tear in his left knee means Marianucci is on the treatment table along with Alessandro Buongiorno and Sam Beukema, while Juan Jesus was released as a free agent.
