Jose Mourinho urges Napoli to sign Nelsson as club prepares an offer

Jose Mourinho has pushed Napoli to sign Nelsson, using his influence in Italian football to recommend the Danish defender.

Reports say Mourinho told Napoli officials that signing Nelsson would be a smart decision.

Galatasaray had initially valued the player at around $10 million, and Napoli is reportedly getting ready to submit an offer.

Lecce, Sevilla, other clubs continue tracking Nelsson as Galatasaray increases price

Lecce has also entered the race for Nelsson, increasing competition for his signature. According to Danish newspaper Tipsbladet, Lecce is working to finalize a deal before the transfer window closes.

Galatasaray has now set a price of $12,5 million, which means negotiations could take time before an agreement is reached.

Sevilla remains in the mix as another club monitoring Nelsson’s future. Previous reports also linked the Danish defender to Real Betis, Anderlecht, and Burnley.

While no formal bids have been confirmed from these clubs, their interest adds to the speculation surrounding his next destination.

Okan Buruk keeps Nelsson on the bench as transfer becomes more likely

Nelsson has struggled for playing time under Galatasaray head coach Okan Buruk. The Danish center-back has played in 18 matches this season, accumulating 616 minutes on the field.

He has not contributed a goal or an assist, and his lack of opportunities suggests a transfer is imminent.

Clubs are preparing offers, and Galatasaray is waiting for the right deal. With the transfer window closing soon, Nelsson’s future should become clear in the coming days.
