Il new allenatore of the Napoli?The casting is wide open.
Article Key Points
Word of Aurelio De Laurentiis: the owner of the blue club spoke this afternoon during a press conference to present the training camp di Castel di Sangroin Abruzzo, held in the halls of Palazzo Petrucci in Posillipo.
“The list of 22 names has grown to 40 – said ADL speaking about the choice of the new coach -. These are interviews during which you have to verify their availability and whether they are suited to the 4-3-3, to our attacking line and high defense. It is a discussion that takes time and you also have to understand their character and whether they are suitable for a Neapolitan culture".
“I don't set deadlines, but the sooner I can decide, the more satisfied I will be. - he added -. Logic says that by 27 June I would like to have a coach ready to sit down with us to calibrate the organization, how to move and how to behave together.
You know, here we make contracts seriously and it will also take time with the other party who is not used to lawyers who think like ours".
De Laurentiis: “Italian? He's busy with Fiorentina”
De Laurentiis delete (for now) the name of Vincenzo Italian from the list for later Spalletti: “He is a very good coach, but he is busy with the Fiorentina.
It is not right to go and break the balance with his club, then if he decides to break the balance then I could even take it into consideration. But today he has a contract and I don't intend to pay penalties".
ADL then responded on the possible return of a technician who had already been at Napoli, referring to Rafa Benitez: “With the coaches who have already been on the bench of the Napoli - he said - I have a correct and current friendship relationship.
I don't think I would do anyone who has been on the Napoli bench any good to come back, but never say never."
De Laurentiis: “Furious after 0-4 against Milan. Giuntoli? Stay”
I also move on to what did not convince the president this year: “What really bothered me was not so much the exit from the Champions League as the league match lost 4-0 against Milan. That shocked me, I didn't understand anything anymore.
We often say to ourselves 'It can happen', but what can happen? It must not happen, it cannot happen, a defeat like this.
You can't get to such an important event in that way and I felt bad for the team, for the coach, for the fans. Seeing the stadium empty is never nice."
On the case Joints: “He is a sporting director and has a contract until June 30, 2024, I don't see why we should talk about it – ADL cut him short -. Napoli is the 17th club in the world, it is useless to talk about the sporting director, who is a figure, however important, not central to the organization of the next season".
