Brought the title after 33 years of waiting, became the idol of the city, but there is every chance that he will not see the next season as the manager of Napoli. Tensions between Luciano Spalletti and the first man of the club from Naples, Aurelio de Laurentiis, are increasing and, as reported by the media across the Apennines, the chance for them to continue their cooperation is currently minimal.Apparently, De Laurentiis does not expect the situation to be smoothed over, which is why he has already established contacts with two candidates for Spalletti’s successor – Rafa Benitez and Antonio Conte.The first misunderstanding between the president and the coach arose on April 19, when De Laurentiis used a clause in the contract without prior notice and extended Spalletti’s contract for another year. He received the notification in writing, which he did not like at all.🚨 Luciano Spalletti could leave Napoli at the end of the season despite winning the title! 🇮🇹Tensions exist between the Italian and the president, Aurelio De Laurentiis. 😬(Source: @Gazzetta_it ) pic.twitter.com/DFtQFNbDCO— Transfer News Live (@DeadlineDayLive) May 19, 2023 Later, the president’s congratulation was missing since the title was certified in Udine, and their last encounter and meeting, which had as its topic future projects and general planning for the future, did not end as expected.Spalletti did not appear at yesterday’s press conference, goalkeeper Alex Meret was sitting next to De Laurentiis. And although journalists insisted on questions about the coach’s status, the president did not want to talk about it.”Everyone is replaceable. Both players and coaches and members of the management. You saw how much we changed in recent years. When I said we were going for the scudetto, many people thought I was crazy. And I fulfilled my promise,” was all De Laurentiis said.Benitez and Conte are free. The Spaniard knows Napoli well, having been in Naples from 2013 to 2015.
