Amin Younes will reportedly make way for David Ospina in Napoli’s squad for the Champions League group stage.
According to Sky Sport Italia, the decision to drop Younes was influenced by Napoli’s 24-man limit and his ‘physical problems’, which have prevented him from making a first-team appearance to date.
Replacing him is set to be Ospina, who was a late arrival from Arsenal and has been promoted to Partenopei No 1 in Alex Meret’s absence.
