“Let’s not attack Di Lorenzo before knowing the truth”. This is what today’s edition of Il Roma writes: “It is too easy to attack Giovanni Di Lorenzo without knowing the truth. The Italian captain was targeted for having decided to leave Napoli. Someone who has given so much to the Italian cause does not he can suddenly go crazy and send everyone to hell. It’s not in the boy’s right to turn his back and run elsewhere. Maybe something would have happened before Conte became the manager of the Neapolitans. If the Salento coach had arrived earlier, certainly defender wouldn’t have been so upset about the treatment he was given. Giovanni knows very well that he hasn’t done great things like in previous seasons. He’s not stupid enough to think that everyone else has done badly and he, on the other hand, has saved. But precisely because of the four years he played at a high level before the last one, it seems that he has become the scapegoat for the failure that was unthinkable at the beginning of last summer. Something serious was said to him.
It seems that Manna went to him to tell him that he could easily find another team. A punch in the stomach for the Tuscan who was not prepared for this attack. Naturally, his agent had to come into play. Who put his cards on the table and communicated the will of his insistently assisted man. When Conte officially became Napoli’s coach he took matters into his own hands by meeting Mario Giuffredi. Who explained to the Lecce native the reason for the player’s decision. Which at the moment seems like he doesn’t want to go back in his footsteps. When he was questioned on the subject he avoided exaggerating with great elegance. He could have calmly let off steam and, instead, remained focused on the European Championships, postponing everything until the end of this competition. Then maybe by meeting Conte he will be convinced and will stay in blue. But if he does it he will have to be supported and not contested by the public. Otherwise, gratitude really doesn’t exist in life.
