Serie A Season 2023 24 Candidates: Napoli
It was a brilliant season, with Nigerian Victor Osimhen finishing as the top scorer with 26 goals, while Georgian midfielder Kvicha Kvaratskhelia was a big surprise, providing 10 assists and 12 goals. With 28 goals against, they were the best defense in the entire league.
The Neapolitans are among the great favorites to win the title in Italy, but they will have to do so without their coach, Luciano Spalletti, and without a leading figure such as the South Korean defender Kim Min-Jae, who left for Bayern Munich for 50 million euros.
Defender Sebastian Luperto and striker Andrea Petagna are the other departures of the team now coached by Frenchman Rudi Garcia, who has already been in Italy with Roma, without much success.
The new addition to the squad is Brazilian defender Natan, but it seems that the backline will be formed by Amir Rrahmani and Leo Ostigard, who only played 11 matches last season.
Serie A Season 2023 24 Candidates: Inter
Almost at the same level as Napoli is Inter, a team that reached the Champions League final last year and has made some interesting additions.
The first two are Colombian Juan Guillermo Cuadrado, multiple Italian champions with Juventus, and French striker Marcus Thuram, who was runner-up in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar with his country.
In addition, young defender Yann Aruel Bisseck and veteran Swiss goalkeeper Yann Sommer arrived from Bayern Munich for 6.75 million euros. Finally, there is the promising Italian midfielder Davide Frattesi from Sassuolo.
Serie A Season 2023 24 Candidates: Juventus
While waiting for Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku, for whom they are negotiating with Chelsea, Juventus is going through a strange moment. They will not play in any European competition, they have been sanctioned for several irregularities and their squad has lost quality. However, with a focus only on the league and Coppa Italia, they can become candidates to the Serie A.
The only addition so far is the American winger Timothy Weah, for whom they paid 11.3 million euros. The other investments were to secure midfielder Manuel Locatelli and striker Moise Kean.
Angel Di Maria, Leandro Paredes, and Juan Guillermo Cuadrado have left, and it remains to be seen whether Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic will go to Chelsea in the deal for Belgian Lukaku.
Serie A Season 2023 24 Candidates: AC Milan
Then we must talk about AC Milan, who was surprised with the signing of the creative Christian Pulisic, who had a poor performance at Chelsea. Along the American are winger Samuel Chukwueze, midfielders Yunus Musah, Tijjani Reijnders, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and striker Noah Okafor. Painful is the sale of midfielder Sandro Tonali, a key player who left for Newcastle for €64 million.
Serie A Season 2023 24 Candidates: Lazio
Lazio, who finished as runners-up, acquired strikers Taty Castellanos and Gustav Isakesen, alongside midfielder Daichi Kamada to improve the squad of coach Maurizio Sarri, who had the tough departure of Serbian midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic to Saudi Arabia.
Serie A Season 2023 24 Candidates: Roma
And finally, there is Jose Mourinho’s Roma, who did not spend a single euro and got players like defender Evan Ndicka and midfielder Houssem Aouar. These are two additions that will not give them enough to fight for the title but will allow the capital team to fight for a place in the next Champions League.
