Naples-Bari, the De Laurentiis model that lasted for years collapsed in a few months: will it still exist?

Napoli-Bari, disaster on two fronts for the De Laurentiis family

From rags to riches. An old saying that the De Laurentiis family he has known this season in the true sense of the word. After all, just a few months ago there was talk – and rightly so – of a model to follow and an absolute reference. A way to play football intelligently, without throwing money out the window like many other entrepreneurs have done in recent decades but operating wisely, in the name of self-financing and capital gains. Debt-free and in the redbut with virtuous management that first concerned the SSC Napoli and then SSC Bari.

Result? Neapolitans champions of ItalyApulians in Serie A if it hadn’t been for injury time with the mockery of Leonardo Pavoletti. That goal ruined what would have been a double celebration for Aurelio De Laurentiis and children. Of course at the same time it also did them a favor as in the event of promotion they would have had to give up one of the two with the choice already made for the Bari club, but the satisfaction of the first division would have been extreme even if it had only come close However, it was in itself an extraordinary achievement which was duly highlighted.

Naples-Bari nightmare, from heaven to hell in a few months

A few months later, the De Laurentiis’ world turned upside down in an extreme and unimaginable way. Napoli have sunk in the table to a position they have not seen since the early years of the ADL era in Serie A, has sunk to the bottom of the rankings and it seriously risks being sucked into Serie C at the end of the season. All for a total of 7 total coaches this season between the two teams for a total disaster. What happened in the meantime? It can’t be a coincidence that both realities are experiencing a moment of such extreme crisis cannot be simply the fury of fate. Luck certainly won’t turn out the right way like in the previous year, but it’s on the balance between one year and another.

More likely father Aurelio and children they have sinned through pridebelieving they were the only or almost the only creators of these successes and guilty of having underestimated a number of situations believing that we have the certain solution in our hands and that we absolutely cannot make mistakes. ADL’s sentence on the future of Napoli, “this team can be coached by anyone”contains the presumption he had this summer which he condemned to one disastrous double season. A lesson that they will certainly have learned since it was paid at a very high price. Both in purely economic terms between the various technicians on the payroll and in terms of credibility and reliability avalanche of criticism from both cities.

Now we need to save only what can be saved, with a European placement for one and remaining in the cadets for the other. We’ll see. But beware of repeating the same mistakes. To err is human, to persevere is diabolical. And to each their own role. Only in this way can both realities be brought back to the top. For the moment total collapse after the peak reached, total management inability that made everything implode.
