Mateo Politano and Napoli have reached an agreement for the renewal of his contract. The blue attacking winger, protagonist of the 2023 championship, will continue to wear the Neapolitan jersey until June 30, 2028, earning a salary of 3.5 million euros per season.
The renewal confirms the company's trust in the player and his ability to make an impact in an offensive department that is constantly evolving under the guidance of Antonio Conte.
A well-deserved renewal on the field
Class of 1993, Politano has exceeded the threshold of 100 appearances with Napoli, demonstrating continuity, versatility, and the ability to adapt to different offensive roles. Last season he made 46 appearances and scored 7 goals, confirming himself as a key element in the 4-3-3 chessboard of the Salento coach. The new contract, already planned in the previous multi-year agreement, provides for a stable salary of 3.5 million, consolidating his position within the team.
Loyalty and bond with the city
Beyond technical qualities, Politano is known for his strong bond with the city and the fans. His stay represents a clear signal of Napoli's willingness to focus on experienced and motivated players, able to guide even the youngest within the team.
Return to the National Team
In parallel with the renewal with the club, Politano is preparing to wear the Italian national team jersey again. Gennaro Gattuso, who took over from Spalletti on the Italy bench, included him in the list of call-ups for the next World Cup qualifying matches, with the hypothesis of deploying him as a starter against North Macedonia, thanks to his international experience and ability to jump over the man.
A fixed point for Conte's project
With this renewal, Politano becomes one of the pillars of Napoli's team. The company continues to work on the market, but the renewal of number 21 ensures Conte a reliable and versatile outside player, ready to be a protagonist also in the new Serie A season and in European competitions.
