Napoli President makes bold statement about PSG and their illegal player approaches

Aurelio De Laurentiis, the president of Napoli, maintains that he has "no problems" with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and that he does not wish to split ways with Giovanni Di Lorenzo. Today, Wednesday, June 26, De Laurentiis was present for Antonio Conte's debut press conference in Naples.

Agents for Di Lorenzo as well as Kvaratskhelia have recently stated that their clients wish to depart as well, despite the fact that Victor Osimhen possesses a release clause as well as appeared to be the most probable Napoli player to depart this summer. As quoted through Tutto Napoli, Aurelio De Laurentiis said, “The captain [Di Lorenzo] is an extraordinary player and a man of great level. I can understand that he felt a little abandoned in the last games, but I’ve explained to him that it is impossible to let a player like him go. We hope the Euros can restore some serenity.”

At the final home game of 2023–24, di Lorenzo was jeered by the Napoli supporters, and there have been several rumors circulating that his agents have been arranging a deal with Juventus, the rival team of the Partenopei. 

“I’m not even surprised about those things in football” : Aurelio De Laurentiis

Even though Kvaratskhelia's status at the Stadio Maradona remains in doubt, ADL is optimistic that the Georgian player would stick with the team. Aurelio De Laurentiis most likely made reference to the €9 million contract that PSG supposedly gave Kvara each year. After Napoli's unprecedented title victory in 2023, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was not provided a new contract, hence his season salary remains at €1.5 million. Conte added that Kvara will stay with the team past the summer.

Aurelio De Laurentiis spoke about PSG and their approaches towards Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, “There are clubs that make proposals to players with no authorization from the club, it’s illegal. In that club there’s the president of ECA, but I’m not even surprised about those things in football. I’m always correct”.
