Napoli is still planning something for the January market. Llorente is hungry on the market by top European clubs and Gattuso would free him without problems since he is not understood in his tactical plan. The new name that circulates in these hours is that of Jean Philippe Mateta, 23-year-old Mainz striker and already author of 2 goals in 4 games this season - just returned from an injury - after the 14 made in the last Bundesliga.
WHO IS MATETA - 1.92 High The French striker is a very fast player in the long run and with an enviable basic technique for that height. He has a good nose for goals although he is not really a penalty area animal. During the last season in the Bundesliga he scored 14 times with the Mainz team. Picked up two years ago by Le Havre in the French second series where he had scored 17 goals at just 20 years of age, the player has also established himself with an excellent scoring in Germany.
LAST MARKET HITS - The situation regarding Matteo Politano at Napoli is still evolving. The Roman striker owned by Inter gave his assent to the transfer but work is still being done on the engagement proposed by the Neapolitan company. Politano is a request that started directly from Gennaro Gattuso who dotes on the external striker admired also with the Sassuolo shirt in the past.
