With about a month to go before the Serie A season begins, Napoli find themselves linked to numerous big name players. The partenopei’s president Aurelio De Laurentiis addressed the rumors in a recent interview with Radio Kiss Kiss:”Am I pursuing Benzema and Di Maria? Completely false. I want young players. Why would I buy two old players? And I say that with all due respect to Di Maria and Benzema. Do I have to appease the fans? They are supporters not managers. I respect them but they need to stay calm and let us work”
Edinson Cavani has also been linked to his former club, but De Laurentiis was pretty clear:”He’s someone who earns 20 million before taxes every ten months, I don’t think that at the end of his career he’d be willing to cut his salary in half”
