Napoli chief Giuntoli insists no panic over Insigne situation

Napoli chief Cristiano Giuntoli insists there's no panic over the planned departure of Lorenzo Insigne.

Captain Insigne will leave for Toronto FC at the end of the season.

"We will sit down and talk about it at the end of the season. Now we have to think about the present, seeing as we have so many players missing and need to focus," Giuntoli told Sport Mediaset.

“The team is reacting well to setbacks and there is every reason why we should look to the future with enthusiasm."

Giuntoli admits they're pleased to have taken on-loan Manchester United defender Axel Tuanzebe.

“Now we have a complete squad in every area, as Faouzi Ghoulam is returning to fitness. We'll keep an eye on the January transfer market, and on our balance sheet, in case there are any opportunities," continued Giuntoli.

“We did well to be rapid on Tuanzebe after Kostas Manolas left."
