The Italian Football League (Liga italiana di calcio, Ligue 1) has announced the signing of Napoli defender Kim Min-jae from Inter Milan for €65 million. The move is expected to strengthen Napoli's defensive line and add depth to their squad.
Kim was signed by Inter in January 2019 on loan from FC Bayern Munich. He made his debut for Inter in a 4-0 win against Udinese on 8 September 2019, scoring twice in the process. Since then, he has been a regular starter at Inter, helping them to reach the Champions League semi-finals in 2020.
Inter have already secured the services of several other key players in their squad, including Thiago Alcantara, Marco Reus, and Emiliano Giambattista. They also have strong talent coming off the bench in the form of Nemanja Matic and Matteo Darmian.
With Kim joining Inter, Napoli will now be able to bolster their defensive line with experienced professionals like Alcantara and Giambattista. This will give Napoli more depth and stability in their backline, while also adding value to the club's youth development programme.
It remains to be seen how effective Kim will be in Serie A this season, but he has shown glimpses of what he can do in the past. With his experience and skill, it is likely that he will make a significant contribution to Inter's efforts this season.
Overall, the signing of Kim Min-jae from Inter Milan is a positive move for Napoli, who are looking to improve their defensive performance in Serie A this season. It should provide Napoli with a solid foundation for the upcoming season and help them to compete at the highest level of football.
