Napoli target Quinten Timber as Conte reacts to De Bruyne and Anguissa injury crisis

Quinten Timber (Feyenoord)
November 2025

apoli have moved for Quinten Timber (Feyenoord) as midfield injuries to Kevin De Bruyne (Napoli) and Andre Frank Zambo Anguissa (Napoli) force Antonio Conte to seek a powerful, all action presence who can restore balance and intensity in a system built on winning duels and playing vertically. Timber’s mix of physicality, pressing, progressive passing and goal threat impressed during Feyenoord’s title campaigns, while his contract to 2026 gives clubs leverage as Feyenoord try to avoid losing their captain for nothing, with Arsenal and brother Jurrien Timber (Arsenal) adding extra competition for his signature.
