Noa Lang Joins Napoli from PSV Eindhoven in €25 Million Deal

Napoli have announced the signing of Dutch winger Noa Lang from PSV Eindhoven for €25 million plus €5 million in add-ons, as per a report confirming the details of the transfer. This is their second big addition of the summer after Kevin De Bruyne. The 26-year-old has signed a five-year contract with the Serie A champions and is expected to play a key role for the team as they look to defend their league title.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Lang had a great stint with PSV, winning two Dutch league titles. Now, he has joined Napoli on a contract until June 2030. The move was completed after Lang passed his medical in Rome, according to reports about his transfer process. The Dutch international can play anywhere across the front line and made 44 appearances for PSV last season, scoring 19 goals and providing 14 assists. His representatives, Hasan Cetinkaya and Ali Dursun, were present as he signed for the Italian champions.

NAPOLI’S AMBITIONS AND RECENT PERFORMANCE

Napoli start the new season as Serie A champions, having won the league for the fourth time in club history. Their summer spending, highlighted by Lang and De Bruyne’s arrivals, demonstrates their ambition to stay at the top of Italian football. Some key players may leave, with striker Victor Osimhen reportedly close to a €75 million move to Galatasaray, increasing Napoli’s urgency to find a new goalscorer. Additionally, PSV also lose another star after Malik Tillman left this window.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR NAPOLI AND LANG?

Noa Lang will join pre-season training under coach Antonio Conte as Napoli prepare for their title defense. The club is in advanced talks to sign Lorenzo Lucca from Udinese, having made a formal offer that includes a €9 million loan fee and a €26 million obligation to buy. Napoli’s first test of the new campaign will be crucial as they face tough Serie A competition, looking to build on last season’s success and stay ahead of their closest rivals in the standings. For further updates, Napoli plan to acquire Lucca for a total possible price of €35 million.
