Star defender swaps Bologna for Napoli
Napoli further bolstered its squad with the signing of defender Sam Beukema from Bologna, the Serie champion announced, with the Dutchman joining on a five-year deal worth €30 million according to Italian media.
Beukema joined Bologna in 2023 from AZ, and the 26 year-old made 80 appearances across all competitions for the Italian side over the past two seasons, including starting all eight games in their Champions League campaign last season.
Napoli, which won its fourth Scudetto in May, has also added Belgian midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, Dutch winger Noa Lang and Italian striker Lorenzo Lucca to Antonio Conte's squad in the close season.
