Napoli won their first Italian title in 33 years with a 1-1 draw with Udinese at the Dacia Arena. This success made the whole city go crazy and start celebrating, despite the lack of an official fete, which will take place after the last game of the season. Now president Aurelio De Laurentiis hopes Napoli will win the Champions League. – When will we win the Champions League? Next year. If only UEFA doesn’t stop us again like they did with the help of the referees this season. We were the best and Milan eliminated us only because the referee was not up to the task.
The Napoli coach had fun with the journalists. He put on a special mask. “We want to confuse you”
One of the main topics around Napoli after winning the Italian championship was the future of Luciano Spalletti, whose contract only runs until the end of this season. Italian media reported in early May that the coach’s relationship with Aurelio De Laurentiis is rather cool. At the time, there was talk that Spalletti had offers from the Premier League and could take advantage of them. Now there are many indications that he will stay at Napoli and extend his contract until June 2025.
On Friday, May 12, there was a meeting between Luciano Spalletti and Aurelio De Laurentiis in one of the restaurants in Naples. Earlier, the coach was in the club’s training center in Castel Volturno and left it in a Fiat Panda. Spalletti was aware that journalists were waiting for him and decided to surprise them by putting on a mask. – We will mislead you and we want to confuse you – shouted the Italian on the recording. Then he went to meet the owner of Napoli.
Italian media write that there is a lot of optimism after the meeting between Luciano Spalletti and Aurelio De Laurentiis, which indicates that the coach will stay at the club for the next two seasons. In addition, he is to receive a substantial raise (he currently earns 2.8 million euros per season – ed.) and a clear guarantee that the club will carry out quality transfers in the summer window. It is possible that one of Napoli’s new players will be Daichi Kamada, whose contract with Eintracht Frankfurt expires at the end of the season.
Napoli will play four more matches in the Italian league this season. The team led by Luciano Spalletti will face Monza (May 14), Inter Milan (May 21), Bologna (May 28) and Sampdoria (June 4) respectively. It is possible that Bartosz Bereszyński will get a chance to make his league debut in Napoli in these matches.
