Official: "Napoli" will add defender A. Reveillere who was left without a club © EuroFootball.com

"Napoli" is strengthening its squad - 33-year-old former "Lyon" defender Anthony Reveillere is joining the team. The services of the French national team member were rejected by Lyon last summer, making him a free agent. Rafael Benitez decided to bring the player to Italy without much thought. The president Aurelio De Laurentiis was the first to announce the acquisition of the defender, posting a message on his official Twitter account. "Welcome Anto!" said De Laurentiis. "With five Ligue 1 championship wins, seven French Cup triumphs, 77 UEFA Champions League matches, and 595 games throughout his career, he can help our club." A.Reveillere played for Lyon from 2003. He has previously worn the jerseys of Valencia (on loan - ed. note) and Rennes.
