Naples, Spalletti: “De Laurentiis’ words? I won’t comment on them”

For the coach who will leave the Azzurri bench at the end of the season, the draw with Bologna is an opportunity to take stock of this last season: “We did very well…”

The year of the third championship will not also be that of the points record. A little bad. Napoli, on the strength of the title conquered for weeks, do not need even a statistical primacy. For Luciano Spalletti, who will leave the Azzurri bench at the end of the season, the draw with Bologna is an opportunity to take stock of this last season. “I have many things left, to build a league like this you need the participation of all the components and we have been very good. The feeling of the city towards football is what makes the difference, which motivates, gives quality, relieves depression. All you need to do is meet the people of Naples and everything becomes easier. I won’t comment on the president’s words, I’m mentally organized to celebrate with the people and my players, who deserve all the best and played a great game today too” said the coach, in the interview granted to Dazn at the end of the race.

TATTOO

In recent days, the coach has had the Napoli shield and the tricolor tattooed on his left arm. “I imagined it and it’s only right that it came out. Valentino (Russo, the tattoo artist ed) is very good, it could be that I go to him to complete the whole arm, there are other things I would do”, he continued. As for the challenge, Spalletti has no particular observations: “When the others have the cue, everything becomes more difficult, especially for my team’s qualities. I asked for a cleaner game, in the end we created several opportunities to close it but we weren’t able and Bologna recovered, it’s an excellent team that plays good football.”

OSI AND KVARA

If Osimhen continues to confirm himself at the top of the scorers, the season finale in Kvaratskhelia is slightly more opaque in terms of purely scoring. But Spalletti is aware of the immense potential of both. ““The more I see Khvicha, the more I like him, I am convinced that he is very strong. When they press us, it is more difficult to find him so you have to go and shorten towards the ball carrier and that’s what I asked him. After a few passes you can then go up Osimhen. Victor is good in the open field and in the penalty area, he has a lot of ferocity in pressing. He will have an important future in any team he finds himself playing, above all he is an exceptional boy, who loves the teammates he solves situations for. still a lot to learn, he knows, he will become even more of a top player,” he concluded.
