Pepe Reina’s father confirms a “conflict” with Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis – “they have to stop being kids and sit round the table”.
The goalkeeper is believed to have rejected a new contract with the Partenopei, as his relationship with the owner has become strained.
That has led to reports he could leave this summer, but the Spaniard’s father denies knowledge of other offers.

The goalkeeper is believed to have rejected a new contract with the Partenopei, as his relationship with the owner has become strained.
That has led to reports he could leave this summer, but the Spaniard’s father denies knowledge of other offers.
“I know something happened between the President and Pepe,” Miguel Reina said on Radio Crc. “They have to stop being kids and sit round the table, look at each other face-to-face and solve this issue.
“I swear, as a father of five children, that I don’t know if he’s had another offer or not. That’s his agent’s job.
“What I can tell you is that Pepe and his family are very happy in Naples, I swear that to you, on my family’s honour.
“There’s just this conflict with the President, and that has to be solved immediately for the benefit of all the parties involved.
“This situation has surprised me, because the relations with the club have always been very friendly.”
