The sentence of Franco Causio

Winner of six Scudetti as a footballer (as well as an Italian Cup, a Uefa Cup and the 1982 World Cup), Franco Causio has had his say, without hiding too much, on what will happen this year. For the 'Baron' è Inter the team to beat but Napoli, currently first in the standings, è dangerous with the reinforcements that could arrive in January could be even more so.

"I know Marotta well, who is putting his hands up and giving the role of favorite to Napoli,” said the former Juventus, Udinese, Inter and Lecce player, among others. “He is right when Conte says that Inter is the team that has to win, Marotta has found a tough and perhaps toughest bone of all.

"Before Marotta took Conte to Inter, we met before a Udinese-Inter match,” added Causio, born in Lecce just like the coach now at Napoli, “and he asked me what I thought of my countryman: I replied that he would be the only one to make him win".

On the January market, the number 15 of the World Cup-winning national team in Spain finally gave a clear piece of advice to Conte himself: "I know he chose Dorgu, then I also like Gallo a lot – he said, referring to the two Lecce players. I would take both of them, he would do well to trust Corvino who makes little mistakes".
