Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis promised “in a day or two there could be an important surprise.”

The patron was speaking to reporters at a political rally ahead of Sunday’s local elections and was asked about Napoli’s campaign.

“In a day or two there could be an important surprise. A positive one? Don’t worry… These were two important seasons, whatever happens. That is all.”

Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis promised “in a day or two there could be an important surprise.”

The patron was speaking to reporters at a political rally ahead of Sunday’s local elections and was asked about Napoli’s campaign.

“In a day or two there could be an important surprise. A positive one? Don’t worry… These were two important seasons, whatever happens. That is all.”

It’s likely he was referring to the imminent arrival of Sinisa Mihajlovic from Sampdoria, as Rafa Benitez is widely expected to sign for Real Madrid on Monday.

De Laurentiis confirmed the squad will go into a training retreat from Friday to prepare for Sunday night’s Serie A closer with Lazio.

If the Partenopei win, they will leapfrog Lazio into third place and enter the Champions League preliminary round.

ADL also noted he is “fed up” of the delays over restructuring the Stadio San Paolo.

“In the end I said I’ll just put up €30m of my own money and have done with it. If I wait for state financing…

“I have many projects, but politics has always blocked them. This time I made some moves in England with the patron of the Formula E races, the cars that run on electricity.

“I’d enjoy a Grand Prix in Naples and on the Amalfi coast. It’d help people see the beauty of our landscape, because they don’t know all this and go to the Maldives instead.”
