The Partenopei have moved swiftly to secure a successor, and all indications point to the former Fiorentina tactician.\n\nOn Monday, Italiano and his representatives met with Napoli's hierarchy—including president Aurelio De Laurentiis, sporting director Giovanni Manna, and CEO Andrea Chiavelli—in Rome. The summit reportedly saw the club table a two-year contract worth approximately €3 million per season, with an option for a third year. Before any deal can be finalized, however, Italiano must first negotiate his release from Bologna, where he remains under contract.\n\nNapoli’s other leading candidate, Massimiliano Allegri, was ultimately ruled out due to his disastrous spell at AC Milan this season. The veteran coach, who previously led Juventus and Milan to domestic success, oversaw a second-half collapse at the Rossoneri that saw them slump to fifth place, missing out on Champions League qualification. With just 28 points from 19 matches after the turn of the year, Allegri was sacked, and Napoli’s decision-makers decided against entrusting him with their own rebuild.\n\nItaliano, 48, has built a reputation as one of Serie A’s most progressive coaches. He guided Fiorentina to back-to-back European finals before moving to Bologna last summer. At the Renato Dall’Ara, he continued to develop a fluid, attacking style, earning plaudits despite working with limited resources. His ability to improve players and implement a high-tempo game aligns with Napoli’s historical identity.\n\nFor Napoli, the appointment signals a decisive shift toward a younger, more dynamic coaching profile. After Conte’s pragmatic and often rigid approach, Italiano’s philosophy promises a return to the expansive, attacking football that once made the Partenopei a joy to watch. With a squad built around technical quality, his ideas could quickly translate into results.\n\nThe move has significant implications for Bologna. Losing a coach of Italiano’s caliber midway through a project raises questions about the Rossoblù’s ability to retain their emerging talents and compete for European places. The club will now be forced to search for a replacement, likely looking for a similarly forward-thinking tactician to maintain momentum.\n\nAcross Serie A, Napoli’s choice reflects a wider trend of clubs opting for coaches with innovative ideas over experienced but recently failed names. Allegri’s fall from grace has further eroded the appeal of Italy’s old guard, while Italiano represents the new wave. If he succeeds, it could accelerate the league’s tactical evolution.\n\nThe financial terms of the proposed deal—€3 million annually—place Italiano in the mid-range of Serie A salaries. For De Laurentiis, known for his frugal approach, the figure strikes a balance between rewarding potential and avoiding the huge outlays demanded by established stars. The short-term nature (two years plus option) gives both parties flexibility.\n\nWhile Allegri boasts six Serie A titles and Champions League experience, his recent failure exposed a tactical staleness that Napoli wish to avoid. Italiano, by contrast, is seen as hungry and adaptable—traits that resonate with a club aiming to reclaim its place among Italy’s elite after a disappointing post-Scudetto season.\n\nSupporters have reacted with cautious optimism. Many remember Italiano’s Fiorentina side outplaying Napoli at times, and his teams’ entertaining style is a welcome prospect. However, the pressure to deliver immediate results will be intense, with Champions League qualification a bare minimum.\n\nThe final hurdle is the meeting with Bologna’s ownership, who are aware of the situation and must agree to terminate Italiano’s contract. Given the coach’s desire to move and Napoli’s determination, a resolution is expected within days. Once that is settled, an official announcement will follow swiftly.\n\nBased on reporting from Tuttosport.","news","Napoli are finalizing a two-year, €3m-per-season deal with Vincenzo Italiano, while Allegri is ruled out after his poor run at Milan cost them Champions League.","326257539542945792","Juventus","334758172679999489","326135624606158848","Serie A","327054547971215360","Juventus vs Fiorentina","2026-05-26T15:55:49Z","why-napoli-chose-italiano-allegri-s-milan-collapse","Tuttosport","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.tuttosport.com\u002Fnews\u002Fcalcio\u002Fserie-a\u002Fnapoli\u002F2026\u002F05\u002F26-148882977\u002Fnapoli_a_italiano_incontro_con_de_laurentiis_allegri_scartato_il_motivo\u002F","326257539425505280","Napoli",[79,68,63,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89],"326257539651997696","326257650629087232","326222707337203712","326222712592666624","326222713054040064","326222707169431552","326257539333230592","326257661500723200",[80,69,64,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98],"Bologna","A.
