Between Serie A and the upcoming showdown with Salzburg in the Europa League, Napoli are entering the decisive phase of their season. The partenopei’s president Aurelio De Laurentiis gave his assessment of the situation in an interview to Sky Sport:”First of all Napoli doesn’t fear anyone, we’re consolidated since we’ve been in Europe for nine seasons, we also have a manager like Ancelotti who has won everything. We are also fascinated by the city of Salzburg”
De Laurentiis went on:”We have a very deep squad that Ancelotti is experimenting with. We have high caliber players, but some know how to interpret his style and others don’t. At the end of the season, we’ll make a selection and we’ll see who played with the most intensity and we’ll draw our conclusions, together we’ll move forward this project that must always improve”
De Laurentiis set his short term objectives:”We can reach the next step if we make it to Europa League final in Baku, but we shouldn’t make predictions, we’ll go match by match, there’s a lot to do. I also don’t write off Serie A. Our fans constantly say if we aren’t first, they aren’t happy. The gap with Juventus? It makes no sense to win if I had a debt of 200 million with the banks”
