Napoli have set out their position on a potential move for Zeballos, making clear they will pursue the deal only if conditions are favourable. The Serie A club has signalled it is not desperate to complete the transfer immediately and is willing to exercise patience, targeting a January 2027 window if terms cannot be met sooner.
