Kim Min-jae praised director Luciano Spalletti.
Napoli is continuing its upward trend this season. This is a result that no one expected even before the opening. This is because key players such as “Living Legend” Dries Mertens, Lorenzo Insigne, Fabian Ruiz, and Kalidou Koulibaly have all left. Of course, resources to replace them came, but few expected their performance. But now, eight months after opening, few teams do better than Napoli.
History is right in front of you. Napoli currently have 74 points from 29 league matches. There are nine games left in the schedule, but the chance of winning is more than 99%. This is because the gap with ‘second place’ Lazio is a whopping 16 points. If Napoli lifts the scudetto this season, it will be their first win in about 30 years since the days of Diego Maradona.토토사이트
Another history is also being prepared. In addition to the league, Napoli is also cruising in the UEFA Champions League (UCL). In the group stage, they were drawn in a group with Liverpool, Rangers and Ajax, but advanced to the round of 16 confidently as top of the group. In the round of 16, they faced Eintracht Frankfurt, the champions of last season’s UEFA Europa League (UEL), but received a ticket to the quarterfinals easily with an aggregate score of 5-0. It was the first time in the history of the Napoli club to advance to the UCL quarterfinals.
However, Napoli was not satisfied here. After beating AC Milan, their opponent in the quarterfinals, they are watching the semifinals and finals.
The great rise of Naples. The players also played a big part, but it wouldn’t have been possible without coach Spalletti. Kim Min-jae also praised Spalletti’s ability.
According to British media ‘Tribal Football’, Kim Min-jae said, “Coach Spalletti? First of all, his tactical approach had a huge impact. But more importantly, his passion.”
“In that respect, I have never seen a manager like Spalletti. He is more passionate than any other player. His desire to win games is great. The team is very aggressive and he is not afraid of anything. I think the director’s influence is very important in that respect.”
