A game drawn in injury time was the straw that could have broken the camel's back for Napoli.
LInsigne's attitude, a kick to a bottle and the shouts towards his teammates, has revealed the tension that is felt in the blue locker room. The balance has been lost for months now, from Gattuso's statements against the president, to the poor results of the latest performances, all completed by a press blackout, which shows the bad mood between the management and the Neapolitan players.
The elimination from the Europa League also had a big impact, especially on De Laurentiis, who is now sure he will not want to entrust his team to the Calabrian coach next season. However, Lorenzo Insigne's agent, Vincenzo Pisacane, put an end to the controversy by saying: "Insigne loses twice, or rather three times: as captain, as a player and as a Napoli fan. Lorenzo always wants the best from himself and as captain he spurs on his teammates. I want to point out that he didn't insult anyone, but only cursed at a game thrown away at the last moment". Now we will have to wait to understand what the reality is at Napoli.
