Conte is there. Undoubtedly blue for a while, five days to be precise, but today he will also be in Naples in person, in the flesh. At the center of the small, great kingdom to be refounded with his help, his technical mastery, his charisma, his enthusiasm: the first inspection of the new coach and his staff is scheduled at the Castel Volturno sports center. A mini tour together with the men who will share with him this adventure inaugurated last Wednesday in Rome alongside De Laurentiis, with the signing of the three-year contract taking place in the FilmAuro offices in Palazzo Bonaparte, one eye on Piazza Venezia and another on Via del Corso. The visit of With you it should last a couple of days, just enough time to start making friends with the places and fields that will be the backdrop to the mission and to get an idea of what will happen. It will or should happen. Then, together with sporting director Manna, he will also dive into the labyrinth of certain tense stories, like the case of Captain Di Lorenzo, but that’s another story and we’ll see. The certainty is that today, the second Monday of June, she will make her debut in the city. Important date: it is 10. A number that in these parts has divine meanings.
Conte returns to Castel Volturno seven years later
However, Antonio Conte’s landing on the blue planet falls within the category of human issues: him, Naples and Naples. The city and the team. For the first time live, face to face, eye to eye since he received the investiture: it will happen today and will continue tomorrow if the agenda does not change on the run or suddenly, at the precise moment in which Mr. Antonio sets foot on Neapolitan soil and then at the Castel sports center Volturno. Familiar location, if we want: he already visited it on 21 October 2014, almost seven years ago, as coach of the national team, together with Lele Oriali, at his side also in this new story of football, love and the imagination of the people. At the time the Napoli coach was Rafa Benitez and he was a very welcome guest: today he will become the host. Just to know: There is no one left of that team.
