Napoli are among a list of high-profile clubs across Europe currently monitoring the progress of impressive, young Nice coach Francesco Farioli.
The Barga-born coach is currently enjoying life at the top of the Ligue 1 table after 11 matches. With seven wins and four draws thus far in 2023-24, Nice are the only team in the French top flight yet to lose in the league.
In fact, Farioli and Nice are one of only three teams across Europe’s top five divisions still unbeaten domestically alongside Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga.
Farioli had previously spent time on Roberto De Zerbi’s coaching staff while he was employed at Benevento and Sassuolo.
According to information from TMW, the 34-year-old Farioli is now attracting plenty of attention from Europe’s most prestigious clubs.
Napoli, who have uncertainty over the long-term future of their current coach Rudi Garcia, are firmly among them according to TMW.
