Francesco Modugno, a Sky Sport journalist, who spoke on ‘Gioriamo D’Anticipo’ on Televomero, spoke about the transfer market and the issues linked to Napoli’s moment: “Napoli without Europe next year? I want to reserve the right to believe in the Champions League until the end, but in the event of a failure to reach the top European competition I would at least expect the Europa League. It would be a cup more suited to Napoli’s level.
Hypotheses for the bench? I wouldn’t close the circle to Pioli, Conte and Gasperini. For me there is also a fourth name which is Italian, the current Fiorentina coach must be taken into consideration. The president is having a constant and prolonged dialogue with all four coaches, who are available to concretely evaluate the offer and the technical project.
These are very different profiles but of great depth and value: with the first the dialogue is older and would represent the big name and the opportunity for relaunch, Gasperini is a concrete possibility and would be a revolution, Italiano would be an idea of technical continuity with Sarri and Spalletti, finally Pioli would be a more profile versatile.
Naples in retreat? Should things go badly again, an enraged ADL could decide to perpetrate this decision by disguising it as a decision necessary to unite the group. Against Roma the president expects a proud reaction from the players. He would have already ordered his retirement after the defeat against Empoli, then a compromise was reached.
Naples-Rome? Once again there will be a full stadium and it is an incredible fact, which makes you understand the love and affection that exists around the team.”
