21.00 – A few minutes to Aurelio De Laurentiis’ interview. Soon all the words.
21:12 – The interview begins with Aurelio De Laurentiis: “A big hug and a big hug to all the fans. Calcio Napoli is a wonderful idea, it doesn’t need to be fixed. It is alive, well, nothing has happened in itinere. Maybe I was misinterpreted. at some point I made a statement in which I spoke of the ‘vil currency’: the blue shirt must be considered by the fan as their own skin, based on their identity. Whoever comes to play for Napoli must identify with this skin, with this shirt. When at some point you see that they disappear and speak only of a salary increase, when they are already privileged, and maybe then they end up in unrecognized leagues (the clear reference is to Ospina, ed) just for ‘vil currency’ you feel bad.
I let it go Koulibaly because he told me he has a few years ahead of him. I told him that he couldn’t go to Barcelona because Barcelona don’t have the money, he is in trouble. Then Chelsea came forward, to which we could not say no. With Koulibaly for about a month and a half I insisted, also offering him 6.5 million net for five seasons, about sixty million gross. But if a player wants to go for another experience, in a prestigious club like Chelsea, in the top league in the world like the Premier, one must also be grateful and cannot hide behind a no. “
21:19 – The interview stops, which will be broadcast by Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli in clips. Stay connected with us, come on Tuttonapoli.netuntil 11pm for all live words.
21:37 – The second part of the interview with Aurelio De Laurentiis begins: “De Laurentiis is a club and a fan. I strongly feel that he belongs to the colors of Napoli, to the shirt, I too consider it as my skin. But I must never forget, as a club, that football has also become an industry, as well as what a passion. And the industry has to follow the rules of the market. Unfortunately, therefore, sometimes we have to go against the fan’s wish. When the fan says to me ‘Why don’t you keep Mertens?’, I can only answer one thing. for another year, because he knows he is 35 and then he has to retire. If he also makes it a matter of vile money then I have to refuse. If I had to pay a disproportionate amount to Mertens, he would miss the next championship budget what it takes to get younger players. “
Shall we greet him? “Yes, I offered him 4.5 million gross and he refused. So I thanked him, to him, to his son Ciro, to his wife, for all that he has transferred us over the years with all the extraordinary goals scored. But we cannot go against our ability, I have to buy young players who represent Napoli for the next seasons. When we changed all the players, taking on the young Mertens and Koulibaly, among others, the fan was doubtful. ‘arrival of Cavani the fan turned up his nose. But how is it that we are so good and everyone becomes extraordinary champions?
On the fans and the joke on the ‘fans harassed by wives, lovers and office managers. ‘ “You need to know how to interpret the words that one says. We come out of a particular period, that of Covid. When you lose more than 200 million, in a context of Italian football in which 1 billion and 800 million are lost in two years, in a context in which this inconceivable virus has put us in a bubble and there is uncertainty, you feel frustrated. It is clear that at some point you identify with those who for other reasons can be damaged economically, disappointed in their affections and in their own work. And he finds an outlet in his being a fan, which is a free zone, an area that belongs to him. I said that one feels oppressed and needs to vent, but this explosion of joy that is in the stadium Doesn’t that mean that the fan is there, that the fan doesn’t turn their backs on you? expected and maybe the answer ta that is given is perhaps misinterpreted, because there is no time to study it and deepen it with a debate, if someone has bothered. In this way there would be no misunderstanding, for which if anyone felt pain I deeply apologize. “
21:44 – The second segment of the interview ends. Soon the remainder.
22:02 – Go on with the third clip of the interview with Aurelio De Laurentiis: “Subscriptions? The campaign kicks off on July 25th and there are several new features. We have provided discounted rates for families and women. 50% discount for Under 14s and 25% for the second member of the couple. In general, women will still have a 10% discount. Prices? The lower curves will cost 195 euros, 175 euros for women, 136.50 euros for a couple and 97 euros for children under 14. The upper curves the whole 205, 213, 50. the 152.50 euros. The lower Distinguished ones cost in full 390 euros, for women 351, the couple 273, the Under 14 195 euros. The whole 570, the women 513, the couple 399, the Under 14 285. Grandstand nisida: full 766 euro, the couple 539, the Under 14 385. Tribuan posillipo: full 1030 euro., Women 927 euro, couples 721, Under 14 521 euros.
I have been talking for a long time to see to create a free zone in the stadium, five hours before and five hours later so that there is a pedestrianization, as happens in other less important cities. We are also trying to get the possibility to park. It is my intention to create more elevators, now there is one. Then some sitting rooms, at least 40, which are positioned at the top both in the Posillipo Tribune and in the Distinti. And then a famous grandstand, of the 500 or the 1,000, which will be equipped with a particular service for those who want to use it. The works at the stadium will be continuous, we are already putting in place the part of the garage and the part of the press room. But also all the other dressing rooms, for the visiting teams. When you play in the Champions League, but also with the big A’s, there is only to be ashamed otherwise. From there we start again. I asked the Municipality to find land to build the athletics track, in order to remove it from the Maradona and bring the fans closer to the field, to be closer to their favorites “.
Is there a dispute with the Municipality on unpaid rents? “I don’t want to argue. It’s always against those who don’t pay, and that’s right. But I still have to sort out the story of the turnstiles that I set up paying for them in 2007/08. It’s a kind of comedy that drags itself into a comedy of French misunderstandings, I don’t know for the convenience of who. When Auricchio was there, I presented a hypothesis of reconstruction of the stadium together with Chiavelli, bringing about twenty million to the table. The speech of my intervention was not taken into consideration, on the contrary, the project of the architect Zavanella, the same architect of the Juventus Stadium, was not even examined. The Municipality, in a populist way, said that it wanted a stadium of 55 thousand euros. Since 1999 I have been talking about a virtual stadium. Against lies you cannot line up, but in the long run the truth will come out. Today like today, with this new mayor, who is a person who, although a Juventus player, does not put a spoke in my wheel, on the contrary we have created a well-fed table, in which everyone plays own role or precise, we are trying to put in place all the pieces of the past and then establish that the stadium must be an asset of Napoli for the next 99 years. Calcio Napoli will undertake to dismantle the overlying structure built for the 1990 World Cup. A model stadium must be created, which has no reductive sense compared to all the other beautiful stadiums around the world “.
22:12 – Finish the third piece. Only the last part of the interview is missing.
