Spalletti was visited today in Napoli’s dressing room by a group of Ultras, fanatical fans of Napoli. Masked, they watched as he unpacked a box from Spalletti. What was in there? The steering wheel of his Fiat Panda. His car was stolen by the same group of supporters in October 2021, they told Spalletti today. What the veteran coach with only a steering wheel to do seems a mystery, but Spalletti could appreciate the gesture of the Ultras when we see the images. Spalletti also got back the CD of the Neapolitan singer Pino Daniele, which was also in the stolen Fiat.
Spalletti’s Fiat Panda was stolen on October 16, 2021 in Corso Vittorio Emanuele, in front of the Britannique Hotel in Naples where he was staying at the time. Spalletti filed a police report, but no more information about the car was ever received. Napoli’s Ultras also left a banner near the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona after stealing the Fiat, announcing that they were the ones who stole Spalletti’s car. ,,10-16-21: Spalletti, we’ll give you back your Panda as long as you leave! Hail, the thieves.”
What happened to the Fiat Panda is not clear, but at least Spalletti has his wheel back and will forever be in the hearts of the Neapolitans after giving Napoli its first league title since 1990.
