It is said that the national media have traditionally paid little attention to Napoli, but there are also exceptions. Or – better still – there are exceptional years: this year Napoli not only won the championship, but also conquered the media: from midnight on Sunday 30 April to 12 noon on Monday 8 May, in fact, the voice « Napoli» combined with the word «scudetto» obtained 28,203 mentions in our media and was pronounced every 25 seconds. This was revealed by the monitoring on the main national and local television and radio channels, carried out by Mediamonitor.it, a platform that uses technology and solutions developed by Cedat 85, a company active for over 35 years in the supply of speech content.

The Mediamonitor.it survey shows that the most cited on radio and TV is Luciano Spalletti: the coach of the Neapolitan team gets 1,193 mentions, 61% more than those of the president Aurelio De Laurentiis (737), also surpassed by item «scudetto party» (1.164). In fourth place, with 551 citations, we find Victor Osimhen; the architect of the goal against Udinese which consecrated Napoli as champions of Italy five weeks early precedes the now legendary Diego Armando Maradona (478), who had led the team to win its two previous championships, and the captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo (221), author of an emotional speech to his teammates after the victory.

The number 77 Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, another great protagonist of the run towards the Scudetto, wins the seventh position, with 210 citations, slightly overtaking Kim Min-jae, the South Korean defender who did not regret Koulibaly (198), and the award-winning playmaker Oscar Paolo Sorrentino (158), author of the scudetto party at the Maradona stadium, apparently close to making a documentary on the 2022/23 championship. Closes the top ten Giacomo Raspadori (103), author of the goal against Juventus last April 23 that mortgaged the championship. Mediamonitor.it also analyzed the echo that Napoli’s success had on the main international radio and TV stations: the English broadcasters spoke above all (300 citations), followed by the Spanish (249), German (216) and French ones ( 156).
