Chaos in Naples with the New Coach

De Laurentiis has turned the club upside down ahead of the match against Barcelona. Aurelio De Laurentiis and Francesco Calzona met this afternoon to finalize the coach’s signing as Mazzarri’s replacement. The agreement is almost done, but if it is not closed today, his arrival could be postponed until Thursday. La Gazzetta dello Sport and several Italian media outlets consider Calzona to be Napoli’s new coach. De Laurentiis met with Calzona while Mazzarri was overseeing his final training session, and the current coach has not been informed of his dismissal.

For now, Mazzarri remains the coach of Napoli and could lead the team against Barcelona if the agreement is not finalized. However, all indications suggest that Calzona will be presented tonight and should lead his first training session tomorrow.
