Luiz Felipe was in contact with Naples for a potential transfer this winter. However, the discussions' extent remains unspecified.

Luiz Felipe has departed from Al Ittihad and is currently in Italy looking for a new challenge in Serie A. Napoli is considered an ideal match due to an injury to Alessandro Buongiorno, which has temporarily weakened their defense. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the move is not only a possibility but a necessity for Napoli. Luiz Felipe, who previously played for Lazio, would be a dependable addition at no cost, which is particularly attractive to Napoli's president Aurelio De Laurentiis following a costly summer. Although there are concerns regarding Luiz Felipe's fitness due to his absence from European football, Napoli perceives this as a calculated risk, anticipating long-term benefits.

Luiz Felipe, who was previously with Lazio and is now a free agent after leaving Al-Ittihad, is another player Napoli is tracking to fulfill Antonio Conte's demand for a stronger defense.
