Spalletti responds to Guardiola and 'sees' the Champions League final: "I hope to meet him in Türkiye..."

“ Guardiola ? I hope to meet him over a nice Turkish coffee…”. A back-and-forth between Luciano Spalletti and the Catalan coach in the press conference, with the Napoli coach hinting at a possible Champions League final between Manchester City and the Neapolitans in Istanbul.

Guardiola and the phrase on Spalletti: “He is very sensitive…”

Yesterday , in fact, Guardiola preferred not to answer a question about the Neapolitans ( “I don't want to talk about it because Spalletti would get annoyed with me, he's very sensitive” ).

In recent weeks he had praised Napoli , calling them the best team in Europe , but this provoked an angry reaction from Spalletti.

Spalletti: “Guardiola? I hope to meet him in Türkiye…”

"It makes us happy when a coach like him talks about Napoli and says nice things about us ," Spalletti added. " I've been following him since he was at Barcelona, ​​just as I enjoy watching Klopp or De Zerbi's teams."

"We're not the team that needs to win the Champions League or be anxious to prove something ," he continued. "We've already made Napoli history, now we need to enjoy ourselves and have the pride and strength we deserve on the pitch. "
