Napoli push to keep Anguissa as Allegri pushes for renewal Napoli are working to secure the future of André-Frank Zambo Anguissa, with Massimiliano Allegri keen to keep the midfielder despite his contract running down. According to AreaNapoli , relaying Sky Sport, the situation could be shifting thanks to the coach’s influence. Anguissa, who has impressed during pre-season at Castel di Sangro, is effectively in the final year of his deal, and earlier renewal talks had been opened before stalling. Now there are signs they could resume.

As Sky noted, it was a presence that carried meaning. The Cameroonian had appeared to be drifting out of the picture after a difficult campaign, but Allegri would prefer to extend his stay. Having worked with him closely over the past weeks, the coach is understood to feel a player of Anguissa ‘s quality is better retained than lost. The next move now rests with president Aurelio De Laurentiis, who will need to return to the table with the player’s camp over the terms of a new contract.
