Napoli: Anguissa set for new deal, talks ongoing until 2029 | OneFootball

Franck Zambo Anguissa has earned a stable place in the heart of Napoli. Arriving almost quietly in 2021, today he is one of the technical and charismatic leaders of the Azzurri locker room. He has become so to the point of winning over Antonio Conte, who last season used him consistently, gaining performance, balance, and even some bonuses in the goal area: he scored six goals, accompanied by five assists in 37 total appearances.

Napoli, Anguissa remains central to the project: the club negotiates renewal until 2029

Despite a contract already extended until 2027 thanks to an automatic option, Napoli does not want to take risks and aims for a new, longer-lasting agreement. According to the newspaper Il Mattino, the club has opened up to the possibility of a further renewal until 2029, to secure the Cameroonian and keep away any interested clubs. Indeed, some inquiries have come, especially from exotic destinations like Saudi Arabia, but so far without concrete developments. And even though Anguissa has never opposed considering new experiences in the future, at the moment the idea of leaving Napoli is not a priority.

The player — 29 years old, in the prime of his football career — wants to feel at the center of the project, and Conte has already made this clear with actions. Now it's up to the club to take an additional step: there is an intention to sit down with the midfielder's agents after the market closes, to build an agreement that can accompany Anguissa and Napoli for a long time to come.
