Antonio Conte puts his hands up: "Juve, Milan and Inter Milan superior to Napoli"

Napoli ended its 2025 in the best way possible: after the Super Cup success, Antonio Conte’s team got its fourth victory in the last five league matches, dragged by a great Rasmus Hojlund. After the match, the Lecce coach applauded the team: “We celebrate a beautiful year where we did something extraordinary and unexpected. We crowned the Scudetto with the Super Cup in which we beat Milan and Bologna. It has been a very beautiful calendar year and full of emotions”.

“In the league we are there and we always try to stay close to the top positions. We are facing different issues this season and we are always facing them as brave men. We are not yet ready to lead: Juve, Milan and Inter for me in terms of structure, payroll and second teams are at a different level. Our growth has just begun, every time we win someone not among these three is something extraordinary” explained Conte, who congratulated his bomber Hojlund.

“Hojlund is a footballer who first of all is very young but can above all improve so much. He is becoming a dominant footballer in that role – highlighted Conte -He is very connected with the team. In my soccer then everyone knows that the forwards have a very important and special role. The road to success? Hannibal said that if the road is not there it has to be built. We are doing it despite great difficulties. Even today Meret, Anguissa, De Bruyne, Lukaku and Gilmour were not present. We hope they can return although we do not know when and how they will return”.

Among the players spoke Matteo Politano: “2025 was spectacular, to be framed. We brought home two trophies, we ended 2025 with a win but in 2026 we must have continuity to bring home more trophies and successes. I have matured so much tactically in the last year and a half”.

“I am happy with the continuity with the new form, we are doing well. Gutierrez moves as well as Di Lorenzo, we are happy with what we are doing. My daughter often comes to watch me, I am happy to have shared the victory with her”, concluded the Blue.
