Sam Beukema is pushing to join Napoli from Bologna, and the Partenopei are preparing an offer exceeding €30m.

Bologna defender Beukema wants to join Serie A champions Napoli and has already informed the Rossoblu about his desire.

Beukema wants Napoli transfer

Bologna want to keep the 26-year-old at the Stadio Dall’Ara, but they may fail to fulfil their target, given that the defender’s contract expires in 2027 and that Napoli have been courting the Dutch centre-back for almost three months.

Bologna will try to resist, but Napoli are willing to send an offer between €30m and €35m plus add-ons.

Beukema is a direct request from Napoli coach Antonio Conte, who wants to add depth to the Partenopei’s defensive line.

Furthermore, multiple sources with knowledge of the situation have confirmed to me directly that Empoli defender Luca Marianucci will undergo his medical with the Partenopei on Tuesday of next week.

Beukema played 47 games across all competitions with Bologna in the 2024-25 season, winning a historic Coppa Italia in May.
