​Napoli draw up Allegri wish list for big January spendingMax Allegri has reportedly requested four January reinforcements to break out of Napoli’s crisis, including a right-back, a physical midfielder, and two strikers, as Noa Lang and Lorenzo Lucca are expected to leave.The Partenopei are struggling badly in both Serie A and the Champions League, but while many are calling for the dismissal of Allegri, it seems President Aurelio De Laurentiis is prepared to give his coach a boost instead.La Gazzetta dello Sport suggest that Allegri has asked for four specific roles to bolster the squad, with some intriguing names mentioned.Napoli wish list for JanuaryPORTO, PORTUGAL – NOVEMBER 04: Massimiliano Allegri, Manager of SSC Napoli, reacts during the UEFA Champions League 2026/27 League Phase MD4 match between FC Porto and SSC Napoli at Estadio do Dragao on November 04, 2026 in Porto, Portugal.
