OFFICIAL - Simeone says goodbye to Napoli, is a new player of Torino

A key player in Napoli's last two Scudetti, leaves the azzurri. Giovanni Simeone is a new player of Torino. Already in the previous season, Antonio Conte had used him sparingly and this year, with the arrival of Lorenzo Lucca who will play alongside Romelu Lukaku, the Argentine was not part of Antonio Conte's plans. After a long courtship by Pisa, and some interest from Spain, in the end 'Cholito' chose the granata coached by Marco Barone, where he will be reunited with his former teammate, Cyril Ngonge, who also recently transferred from Napoli.

Napoli and Torino have found an agreement based on a loan with an obligation to redeem, after the first point of the granata from February onwards. He will play alongside Che Adams and another ex-Napoli bomber, Duvan Zapata, who is recovering from a cruciate injury that kept him out for almost the entire last season.
