Napoli Secures Matteo Politano with New Contract Until 2028

Napoli, the reigning Serie A champions, have extended the contract of veteran winger Matteo Politano, ensuring his stay with the club until June 2028. The announcement, made on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, solidifies the 32-year-old Italian's role in the squad following his arrival in 2021. Politano, who has scored 17 goals in 137 appearances for Napoli, has proven to be a vital asset with his versatility and consistent performances on the right flank.The new deal extends beyond his previous contract, which was set to expire in June 2027, reflecting the club’s confidence in his abilities. Known for his pace, dribbling, and precise left-footed deliveries, Politano brings a wealth of experience from 533 professional matches, including stints with Inter Milan, Sassuolo, and the Italian national team, where he has earned 16 caps and scored four goals.

This move aligns with Napoli’s strategy to bolster their squad as they aim to defend their 2023 Serie A title. The club is also exploring additional transfers, with rumors of a potential loan for Manchester United’s forward R. Højlund. Under manager Antonio Conte, Napoli continues to position itself as a formidable force in Italian football.
