De Laurentiis before the match
Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis spoke to Prime before the match: “I’m very happy with the team, because Napoli never fell. He had some missteps, as it happens in life. It’s a long way from here to say it’s no longer a Napoli Scudetto. I always see that the calculations are done in the end. So let’s look at the cups and the championships, let’s see how the great football managers, who have the great responsibility to destroy this football, if they could instead make it more modern, more effective and less verbose for the young people who can no longer follow the outdated football. And old. Should stadiums like the Bernabéu become usable 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, a stadium like this in Italy? If Juventus player Gaetano, the mayor of Naples, breaks his ties with the city council and sells it to me, within a year I will make it the most beautiful stadium in Italy. If the councilors hate Naples and do not side with the inhabitants, we have the Royal Palace of Caserta, in Pompeii. Either from one side or the other. Naples was a kingdom two hundred years ago, it is not that Campania is not identical with Naples. And the head of the region is next to me. We loved Napoli with Sarri, with Spalletti, but also with Ancelotti, and with Mazzarri who was the first to make us jump for joy in Europe. Let’s hope politicians don’t cancel the decree Growth, otherwise Europe will go out the window.” Read all of De Laurentiis’ words.
