Ruud Gullit outspoken about the three clubs’ season
Napoli, Milan and Juventus are experiencing a completely different season. It was precisely on the moment of the three top clubs that Ruud Gullit spoke to ‘La Gazzetta dello Sport,’ who wrote an important page of history with the Rossoneri shirt at the time of the “trio of the Dutch” that formed one of the most famous eras of the sport.
“In a TV broadcast I said that Napoli is one of the favorites to win the Champions League, and I have not changed my mind. It plays modern soccer: fast, quick,vertical. The English are strong, as are Real, Bayern and PSG, but this team is completely different. Compared to Maradona’s Napoli, this is a total team, which makes the group its strength and is able to express total soccer. It can win the Scudetto and go all the way in Europe,” the Dutch legend began about the partenopei.
“Milan are having a more complicated season than expected, but they are fighting and suffering to get out of the negative period for good. In the Champions League they won the first leg of the round of 16 with Tottenham and will go to London with two out of three results at their disposal. We will see how it will turn out. I think De Ketelaere is a great talent. I am convinced that if they give him time to adapt to Italian soccer in the best possible way and give him confidence he will do very well,” he added in reference to the Rossoneri.
“It’s always a shame when you hear things like that and you never want to be in such a situation. Especially if you are a big club like Juventus. It’s a great club that has won so many trophies and they don’t deserve everything that’s happening to them,” he concluded, speaking of the Bianconeri.
