Napoli: Serie A champions boost defence with €20million Gutierrez signing
Napoli have added further to their squad ahead of the Serie A kick-off this weekend.
Napoli have completed the signing of Miguel Gutierrez from Girona.
Gutierrez has moved to the Serie A champions in a deal believed to be worth €20million including add-ons.
The left-back has signed a five-year contract with Napoli, becoming their ninth signing of a busy transfer window for the Scudetto winners, the headline addition being that of Kevin De Bruyne from Manchester City.
A product of the Real Madrid academy who featured 10 times at senior level for Los Blancos, Gutierrez made 113 appearances for Girona after joining them in 2022.
He was a part of the Girona side that finished third in LaLiga in 2023-24 as they stunningly secured Champions League qualification. Gutierrez played six times in the Champions League last season, scoring once.
In total, Gutierrez scored six goals and contributing 18 assists in his time with Girona.
He will now form part of a Napoli squad that will hope to successfully defend the Scudetto and challenge in the Champions League under Antonio Conte.
Napoli open their Serie A campaign at Sassuolo on Saturday.
