Naples, De Laurentiis against the team: "We will protect our rights in every location. Ancelotti decides on the withdrawal"

November 6, 2019

NAPLES – The reaction of Aurelio De Laurentiis took a long time until early afternoon and came after a long pause for reflection, used by the president of Naples also to confront himself with his lawyers. But there was obviously no margin even to look for a truce, given that the blue club came out at the end in the open with a very hard note. "The company announces that, with reference to the behavior of the players of its first team yesterday evening, Tuesday 5 November 2019, it will proceed to protect its economic, patrimonial, image and disciplinary rights in every competent office – it reads – It is also specified that he has entrusted the decision-making responsibility in relation to the execution of collection days by the first team to the coach of Carlo Ancelotti himself.

The mutiny of the Napoli players will therefore have very harsh consequences, which after the draw against Salzburg had refused to remain in punitive seclusion until Sunday morning, as De Laurentiis had ordered. At the gates there is a sensational and unprecedented legal battle, with the president who will try to make the whole team pay for the serious act of insubordination.

Napoli, it's 'mutiny': Ancelotti and the team are not returning to retreat

Ancelotti remains in the saddle for the moment, reassured by De Laurentiis during a long phone call. But the president also expects the coach to take a clear (and intransigent) stance towards the team, expected from the Saturday night advance at the San Paolo against Genoa. The Napoli – which for tomorrow at 15:30 confirmed the training at the San Paolo open to subscribers – is a powder keg, the real showdown could only be postponed by a few days, with a stop at the door.
