celebrates the Scudetto of Napoli-Corriere.it

At the table of the Napoli Scudetto party there is a very special guest. His name is Cholo Simeon and his son one of the protagonists of the team’s triumphal march. Giovanni, the Cholito, and his dad are enjoying these days when the city is wrapped in a single color, blue, and rediscover the Argentine roots of football that Naples has. His father had promised him: he will arrive for the Scudetto. And so it was. It is not excluded that on Sunday he will be among the most special guests of the Maradona grandstand reserved for the authorities. The Cholo toured the city of his compatriot Diego almost like any other tourist. The visit to the mural, a pizza on the seafront, without worrying too much about the fans who recognized him to whom he gladly granted a selfie or an autograph.

When last summer the negotiation for Giovanni’s arrival was in its final stages, Cholo hoped that it would eventually go through and was the first to advise his son to wear the Napoli shirt. Cholo and cholito are very close, in addition to affection they are also united by a very special record: the Napoli striker became the second Argentine after his father to score four goals in the first four games played in his career in the Champions League, and this thanks to two goals on target in the autumn against Rangers. Tomorrow, Sunday, the appointment in the temple of Diego. Giovanni paws to play after being stopped due to injury.
