Napoli have firmly rejected an opening bid for Noa Lang, Gianluca Di Marzio reports. Atalanta wanted to sign the forward on loan, but Napoli will only entertain a permanent transfer.

Lang is under contract in Naples until mid-2030. The Netherlands international arrived last summer for €25 million and Napoli want to recover a large part of that fee.

Napoli want €20 million for the winger, who was still loaned to Galatasaray for half a season last term.

Atalanta have now made their move. They want Lang on loan for a year, possibly with a non-mandatory option to buy, but Napoli have no interest in that deal.

Ajax also feature in Di Marzio's article as a possible destination for the former PSV and Club Brugge player. The Dutch club would first have to sell Mika Godts to make room.
