Ciccio Graziani did not miss the exponential growth of Giovanni Di Lorenzo, captain and symbol of Napoli 2.0 trgato De Laurentiis-Giuntoli-Spalletti. When Insigne, Mertens, Koulibaly, Ospina and Fabian Ruiz left last summer, Di Lorenzo was proclaimed by his teammates as the new captain. The ballot was with Mario Rui, the one with the most years of experience wearing the blue jacket.
Graziani on Di Lorenzo: “Exceptional”
—
And so, to the microphones of Tele A, during the broadcast ‘Offside’, the coach Ciccio Graziani praised the technical skills of the new blue captain with clear, precise, unequivocal words: “To date, Di Lorenzo is the strongest right-back in Europe, not only in Italy !”. But also for Lobotka he spent flattering words: “Lobotka is only playing with Modric and let’s talk about Modric… who would have ever thought that last year!?”. Yes, last summer everything that happened in this the first part of the season was truly unimaginable: the disappointment for the many farewells, the fear linked to the word “renewal”, which rhymed with “downsizing” did not let the Neapolitan square sleep peacefully. Many criticisms also rained on Dimaro, good retirement of Naples for a decade, never touched by the climate of protest.But, right from the season debut with Verona, the new signings showed that they were there, they answered present, they declared to everyone that they wanted a place up there, despite little experience. Despite the criticisms.
