The former coach: “For every club in contention, finishing in the Champions League matters more than the rest: without sheikhs the money comes from there. And watch out for Napoli…”
Will we bring four or five teams to the Champions League in 2024-25? All considerations regarding the championship race depend on the answer, which will only arrive at the end of the season with the country-by-country scores of the UEFA ranking. “If we brought four, I think the fight would already be restricted to three teams, although with a string Napoli and Fiorentina could also threaten Bologna, Roma and Atalanta. But if, instead, fifth place was really worth qualifying for the European Championship that counts, then it would truly be open to all contenders.”
