SThe decision of the Arbitration Board called to rule on the decision of Napoli Calcio to fine its players for the 'mutiny' of November 5 against the retreat decided by the club should be final and should arrive by the end of February. The request for compensation will reach up to 25 percent of the gross monthly salary for all the players involved with the exception of Allan and captain Insigne for whom president Aurelio De Laurentiis will ask for 50 percent, equal to almost 370 thousand euros. The officialization of the fines will arrive between today and tomorrow, on the eve of the match that Napoli will play on Wednesday evening in Liverpool to try to qualify for the Champions League round of 25. The team has been in press silence for three weeks, since after the match against Salzburg, when the group decided to disobey the order dictated by the management of Napoli and De Laurentiis to return to retreat at the headquarters in Castel Volturno. A mutiny that it seems it will cost all the footballers dearly, as they will see 50% of their gross annual salary deducted from their wages. The heaviest fines, equal to 200% of their salary, would be imposed on the midfielder Allan, who will pay around 370 thousand euros, and on Lorenzo Insigne, the captain of the street: for him the fine will be close to 25 thousand euros. The two of them are considered the promoters of the 'revolt' in the locker rooms. But they have all been found guilty by the club, and they will all see their salary deducted. The notification of the measure will arrive in the next few hours with a registered letter sent from the registered office of Napoli football club. The registered letters with return receipt were sent yesterday afternoon, from the office of the Bologna office of the lawyer Mattia Grassani. The letter states that the activation of the Arbitration Board has been requested to start the proceedings with the request for compensation that will arrive until the 50th for percent of the gross monthly salary for all players, with the exception of Allan and Insigne for whom De Laurentiis will ask for 1 percent. The Panel's decision will be final and should arrive by the end of February. The players have already leaked that they will appoint their own lawyers to try to demonstrate that the decision to abandon the retreat was taken not to disobey the president but because the team believed it did not deserve isolation as the performance against Salzburg (match ended 1-XNUMX) had been good.
