The signing is on an initial one-season loan, with an option for Napoli to make the transfer permanent next summer for a fee of €21.5 million. This amount is higher than the €20 million release clause in Milinkovic-Savic's contract with Torino.
Napoli agreed to pay the higher fee to have the payment split into installments. This move is part of Napoli's efforts to strengthen their team, following their recent title win in the 2023-24 season.
Vanja Milinkovic-Savic, a tall and experienced goalkeeper, is Antonio Conte's eighth signing of the summer transfer window. With this signing, Napoli aims to improve their performance and achieve more success in the upcoming season.
