Napoli include Union St Gilloise Algerian star on list to replace André-Frank Zambo Anguissa According to Gazetta dello sport , Napoli have added Union St Gilloise ‘s Algerian star midfielder Adem Zorgane to their shortlist to replace André-Frank Zambo Anguissa. The midfielder is out of contract in the summer and Napoli are said to be keen to bring in a replacement in January. Zorgane is not the only player on the list, with Monaco’s Mamadou Coulibaly and Darryl Bakola of Sassoulo also on the list. Zorgane has recently signed a new deal with Union St Gilloise, so Napoli will not be getting the 26-year-old for a cut price deal. Zorgane himself is said to be ambitious and keen on a move to a bigger league at some point. Over the years, Union St Gilloise have never stood in the way of a player who has ambitions of moving to a bigger league, something which has clearly endeared them to players who understand that the club values their careers alongside its own success on the pitch. However, Union have also shown they are good negotiators and will get the maximum value out of Napoli if they do sign Zorgane. Zorgane has, for many seasons now, been one of the best midfielders in Belgian football. The Algerian left Paradou AC back in 2021 to join Charleroi. He played 140 games for the Zebras, scoring 10 goals and providing 27 assists. It was a surprise that he remained with the Zebras for four seasons before moving on. It had been expected that Zorgane would leave Belgium but instead he joined Union in 2025 and helped them win the domestic cup last season. He played 51 games for the Brussels based side, scoring four goals and providing nine assists. It is not surprising that Napoli are showing interest, and they are unlikely to be the only club from top leagues in Europe scouting Zorgane this season. GBeNeFN  |  Ben Jackson
