“I wanted to speak to him properly for a while and told him I’ll be in Madrid to cheer Napoli on against Real in the Champions League.
“This is an excellent squad, even if they are missing Arkadiusz Milik. We hope he can recover as soon as possible so Napoli can be even stronger.”
Maradona later wrote on Facebook: "Today I felt like a Napoli player again."
Sarri confessed to the cameras “it’s a dream come true” to meet with Maradona.
The Coach had introduced Il Pibe de Oro to the squad by interrupting training to present 'our new buy.'
