Rasmus Højlund - Napoli’s leading marksman with 10 goals in 25 matches.
Cagliari’s young coach Fabio Pisacane, who took charge in June 2025, has given the team a new identity by combining a flexible formation with a pragmatic style that looks to manage the game, keep it compact and use controlled pressing to try and disrupt better teams.
