In spite of having been inquired by a bunch of clubs around, latter of which Sampdoria - which he had already been playing for, though capping only thrice first team-wise, back in 2013/14, - 26-year old Italian striker Andrea Petagna, playing for Napoli since the start of last season, and currently on a deal with Partenopei until June 2024, is meant to stay put, out of resident boss Luciano Spalletti having deemed him a valuable member of the team, albeit a backup one.

Former Atalanta hitman was previously linked to more clubs around, including Fiorentina and Torino. Capping once for Italian senior national team, back in 2017, Petagna, throughout his career as a pro club player, capped 252 times in official games, scoring 53 goals therein.
