Boardroom2 Jun 2036

Napoli have won it

This is the season the town will measure the next twenty against. The trophy travels home with the squad, and the route through the streets was agreed days ago.

Transfer targets2 Jun 2036

Juventus tell Napoli: Francesco Camarda is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Transfer targets2 Jun 2036

Napoli bid $32.8M for Vasilije Adžić

The offer went to Inter this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Squad2 Jun 2036

Michael Kayode honoured for the season

The kind of year that ends with a name being read out in a hall. Napoli had the benefit of it every week and now have the problem of everybody else knowing.

Market2 Jun 2036

Napoli say no — this time

The offer from Modena for Antonio Vergara was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market2 Jun 2036

Juventus join the queue for Giorgi Mamardashvili

Add another name to the list: Juventus have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Giorgi Mamardashvili. The answer from Napoli has not changed — yet.

Market2 Jun 2036

Giorgi Mamardashvili wants more than Napoli are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

The dugout2 Jun 2036

Giuseppe Bellini says Napoli went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad2 Jun 2036

Tempers go at Napoli

Carlos Baleba was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad31 Mar 2036

Flavio Conti damages knee ligaments — 31 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 31 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

The dugout31 Mar 2036

Bogdan Popov: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Napoli have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad31 Mar 2036

Michael Kayode in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Napoli this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The dugout31 Mar 2036

The manager makes an example of Gonçalo Ramos

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout31 Mar 2036

Assane Diao has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Napoli will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Market31 Mar 2036

Michael Kayode linked with a move away

The name of Michael Kayode keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Napoli say nothing, which says plenty.

The dugout31 Mar 2036

Darryl Bakola asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Looking ahead31 Mar 2036

Antonio Vergara goes back to face Bologna

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Antonio Vergara’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Napoli needing him to play as if none of it matters.

Loan watch31 Mar 2036

Arturo Toscano keeps scoring at Sambenedettese

26 appearances away from home and 3 goals to show for them. Every one of them makes next summer's conversation a little more expensive.
