Napoli, for the bench goes straight to Stefano Pioli
After Conte’s no, the blue club seems to have made its decision
Napoli, grappling with a complicated end to the season, is already thinking about who to entrust the bench to in order to start all over from scratch from the next summer training camp. After courting, for a long time, Conte, it seems that patron De Laurentiis has been convinced to bet on Pioli, a coach now at the end of his adventure on the Milan bench.
Pioli, in his five years with the Rossoneri, showed all his value, managing to win a Scudetto moreù than deserved. De Laurentiis believes he has the experience and skills needed to manage a square that is by no means simple like Naples. Hence the decision to try to engage in concrete negotiations to arrive, in a short time, at the classic white smoke.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, there would also already be a definite plan to snatch Pioli’s sì. An attractive proposal is rumored: a two-year contract with an option for a third season. Economically, the proposal would be about three million euros (plus bonuses) per season. Less than the salary received at AC Milan (4.5 million) but still an important salary.
Obviously, before they can move to the next level in the negotiation, Napoli will have to wait for Pioli to finish his season in the Rossoneri and talk to the Diavolo to figure out how to end his adventure in Milan. Napoli è is in the window, ready to step up.
