Eintracht-Napoli, Spalletti is clear on Osimhen’s condition
Spalletti removes doubts about Osimhen’s condition
Napoli coach Luciano Spalletti presented in a press conference the challenge with Eintracht Frankfurt, the first leg match of the Champions League round of 16, scheduled for Tuesday night at 9 p.m.
The partenopei coach shed light on Osimhen: “Osimhen is a guy who tells the truth, he calmed us right after the game and the discomfort he had. And we were convinced he had nothing. He is fine, in training we could see the usual Victor running with desire on the field. This is a very strong group with individualities that can always help us, for example, Kvaratskhelia’s goal against Sassuolo was stylistically beautiful.”
“We know that we have potential like our opponent. Glasner said it well, that Napoli is a strong team but it has chances to pass the round. It has a 50-50 chance to win in the double challenge. I think like him,” Spalletti continued.
“Doubts are always there, but when you have a strong group it is possible that some changes will be there compared to the last game, but we will see to what extent. There is to remember that many people have solved games for us. I have several good ones to deal with. The game that Elmas played in place of Zielinski did very well, when we were hesitant at first about our path in the league Raspadori and Simeone put a lot of things right for us. Lozano and Politano I changed them several times, not because there was a lack of confidence, but because the level is very high of both of them, so you look to make 100 percent of the pair available work. I have several, of pairs, where I have quality in the one who has played more or less. Some have played some and some. Mario and Olivera are one such pair, it’s clear that each of them has superior qualities in some things and vice versa. But so far they have worked well and we will see that tomorrow night as well,” concluded the coach of the Azzurri.
