Juventus sporting Director Giovanni Manna will free himself and join Napoli in the coming days.

According to a report by La Gazzetta dello Sport via Calcio Napoli 24, Juventus sporting director Giovanni Manna was not present in the stands for the Turin derby and that could indicate a potential departure from the club soon. ‘

Giovanni Manna is looking to consider terminating his contract with the Bianconeri early as he is set to join Napoli in a much more advanced role.

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis is expected to have verbally agreed on a deal with Manna earlier this month as his club will kick off a new era.

The Partenopei are probing the likes of Vincenzo Italiano, Antonio Conte and Raffaele Palladino for the head coach role to lead the team next season. Signing Giovanni Manna is a sign of laying the foundations for a rebuild after a horrendous start to a post-Scudetto season.
