Naples, Careca visits the Azzurri

NAPLES – Napoli woke up with a 12-point lead over second place in the standings and the atmosphere at the Castel Volturno Training Center was made even more electrifying by a visit from Antonio Careca: one of the main protagonists of the conquest of the second Italian championship. The former Brazilian center forward has been in town for television engagements for a few days and he took the opportunity to say goodbye before the morning training session Luciano Spalletti and the players. There is a scent of the Italian flag in the air and the greatest number 9 of the past also wanted to congratulate his heir: Victor Oshimen, in an ideal goal relay with the new Fuorigrotta idol.

Kvara towards recovery

Careca could be at the stadium on Sunday evening to cheer on Napoli in the postponement against Roma: another crucial appointment in the race for the Azzurri’s Scudetto. Spalletti has already invited his players to be wary of the record lead in the standings and expects to see another showdown from the leaders against a fit and difficult opponent. Mourinho arrives at the Maradona and the stands will be sold out: 50,000 spectators. Full recovery is increasingly likely Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, forced to miss the Campania derby with Salernitana last week due to the flu. The Georgian striker has resumed training and will do everything to be there. The Brazilian defender is also available Juan Jesus and the new goalkeeper Pierluigi Golliniwhose loan signing will be made official on the day.
