Napoli and Juventus track Sassuolo teenager Darryl Bakola

Darryl Bakola is attracting growing interest in Serie A, with scouts from Napoli and Juventus reportedly watching the 18-year-old midfielder during Sassuolo’s match against Fiorentina.

The latest scouting visit was reported by Ekrem Konur, as Bakola’s recent performances continue to draw attention from leading Italian clubs.

Bakola is believed to have been valued at between 25 and 30 million euros, with several potential suitors monitoring his situation. Juventus are understood to be particularly attentive, with the midfielder’s reported salary demands viewed as affordable by the Turin club.

Sassuolo remain in a strong position, however. Bakola’s contract runs until 2030, giving the club control over his future and placing it in a favourable position should a formal offer arrive.

His current valuation on Transfermarkt is 15 million euros, although that figure could rise if he maintains his recent level of performance. With Napoli and Juventus now following his progress, Bakola’s future is emerging as a potential transfer story to watch in Serie A.

Sassuolo’s next fixture will come against AS Roma in the 11th round of the Italian championship. The betting company 1xbet lists Sassuolo at 7.40 to win, with a draw priced at 5.50 and an AS Roma victory at 1.20.
