Birthday Naples: 263 creatives competing for the official logo

NAPLES – In Naples, October 30th is no ordinary day. It's a celebration that transcends time and religion, a "secular Christmas" in honor of Diego Armando Maradona. This year, in 65 DD—"After Diego," as Maradona fans call him—the city is preparing to celebrate its soccer god at the table, too, with a gourmet evening at Ostaria Pignatelli.

Last year, the restaurant paid homage to the Pibe de Oro by introducing "Spaghetti alla Maradona" to the menu, a simple yet passionate dish with garlic, oil, fried breadcrumbs, and chili pepper. For 2025, the dedication becomes a true convivial ritual: a dinner entirely inspired by Diego, with dishes and stories that reveal his most authentic soul.

Caivano – An arrest that brings to light one of the most dramatic pages in Neapolitan news. Yesterday, the Carabinieri snapped handcuffs on Ciro Migliore, a 27-year-old already known to law enforcement, during a drug raid in Caivano's green park. The man, identified as an alleged drug dealer, is the same young transgender man who was the boyfriend of Maria Paola Gaglione, the 16-year-old who died in the accident in September 2020. The tragedy, which shocked the entire community, was caused by the victim's brother, Michael Gaglione. As established in the trial, the man, opposing his sister's relationship, chased the couple on a motorcycle. During the chase, the scooter on which Maria Paola and Ciro Migliore were riding crashed, causing the young woman's death. Michele Gaglione was sentenced to 9 years and 6 months in prison for manslaughter. Yesterday's arrest by the police adds a dark piece to Migliore's story. The military raided his home, finding evidence of what appears to be a well-organized drug dealing ring: among the findings, 10 pre-packaged doses of cocaine and crack, packaging material and a "lmaster book" with initials and numbers, likely the accounts from the illegal sale. €1.675 in cash was also seized, presumably the proceeds of the illicit activity. The September 16th investigation is not the first drug dealing investigation involving Ciro Migliore after the death of his girlfriend; already in February 2021, he was targeted by law enforcement for similar crimes. The arrest closes a tragic cycle, where a family loss is intertwined with stories of deviance and illegality.
