Napoli market, Manna peremptory on Conte and McTominay

Napoli sporting director Giovanni Manna gave a long interview to the microphones of Sportmediaset in which he discussed several topics including the future of Antonio Conte and Scott McTominay. “I rate this season extremely positive – he began -We must remember that in two years we won an unexpected Scudetto and then the Super Cup in a clear and deserved way. Our goal has always been to hit the Champions League positions, then it is clear during the championship the growth of the roster and the work can also lead you to aspire to something more”.

“This year it was not possible because there was a succession of long injuries that affected our performance – added the ds of the champions of Italy’Italy – although we should not forget however that Napoli was always first or second when they had everyone, then third. There has been a consistency from the team”.

Then he talked about McTominay: “Scott is an important footballer, he is happy to be in Naples, I think he shows it when he plays and when he lives the city. He still has two years left on his contract, we have an extremely clear and frank relationship with him. We are talking, it is not a current topic. We know the importance of Scott, to date we have not received any offers also because the player has never expressed a desire to change air”.

With coach Antonio Conte we are already talking about next season: “It is normal, we always plan, we have known each other for two years, the work that has been done is incredible and positive. Under other circumstances we would not be third in the standings and we would not have won a Super Cup, we would be talking about something else, so with tranquility and serenity we look to the future”.

Closing on Alisson Santos: “The impact of Alisson has been positive because he is a boy of great humility, energy and willingness to work. As for the redemption there is a right that is already defined so there is no need to do anything”.
