Napoli is working on securing funds for activity in the football market, and for that purpose, the transfer of Jens Cajuste to Brentford has been agreed upon. The English club will bring in the player on a one-year loan with a mandatory purchase option of 12,000,000 euros at the end of the season.Cajuste evidently did not meet the expectations of the new head coach at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, Antonio Conte, so Napoli did not insist too much on keeping him. The only thing remaining is for the Swede to arrive on the island, undergo the needed medical checkups, and pose with the jersey of his new club.🚨🇸🇪| #Napoli have reached an agreement with Brentford for the sale of Jens Cajuste. The deal is for a loan with an obligation to buy under certain conditions for 12 million euros.📰@DiMarzio pic.twitter.com/mVeBIHX5yv— Napoli Zone (@TheNapoliZone) August 7, 2024 After all that has been seen in Naples, the impression is that Cajuste (24) did not live up to expectations. He arrived from Rennes last summer for 12,000,000 euros and made 35 appearances throughout the season but failed to establish himself as one of the team’s main players. It was clearly important for Napoli’s management to recoup the invested money, excluding the player’s personal earnings, and they succeeded in that.As can be heard on the market, Napoli’s management is working intensively to provide Conte with a new midfielder and has put serious pressure on Brighton’s management regarding the transfer of Billy Gilmour. The situation is similar to that of Cajuste; the Italian club’s initial offer of 10,000,000 euros plus bonuses was rejected. The English club is asking for 12,000,000 plus bonuses. Napoli will need to increase their offer, which they might do now that they have completed the sale of Cajuste.##NAJAVA_MECA_8258450##The Scot showed great potential when he became a first-team player at Chelsea but did not meet expectations at Stamford Bridge. In the past two seasons, he has grown into a regular first-team player for Brighton, so it remains to be seen how he will fare in the Apennines. Napoli and Gilmour have agreed on personal terms, and now it is just up to the clubs to find common ground.
