More than 10,000 fans welcomed the Napoli players this Monday morning at the international airport of this southern Italian city, after the heartbreaking 1-0 victory against Juventus that brings them ever closer to the scudetto.
The arrival was triumphant for the team and the coaching staff at the Capodichino aerodrome, where thousands of fans were waiting for them, in what seems to be an anticipation of the great celebrations that lie ahead when the Azules secure a historic Scudetto, 33 years After. Diego Maradona got the last one.
Others, however, went out to celebrate in the streets of the city with songs, car horns, fireworks and blue flags.
After landing at 2.30am, the players boarded the club bus, which had difficulty leaving the airport due to the number of people around.
The Azzurri joined the celebrations, Osimen and Kvaratskhelia, the two stars of Luciano Spalletti’s team, climbed onto the roof of the bus to greet the thousands of fans.
With 7 appointments to go, Napoli, who have 78 points, can become champions on Saturday, thanks to the large advantage they have over Lazio, who have 61 points.
In this way, if Napoli beat Salernitana next weekend and Lazio do not beat Inter in Milan, the Neapolitan club will mathematically ensure the Scudetto.
The president of the institution, Aurelio De Laurentiis, said a few weeks ago that the celebration of his team’s ‘scudetto’, in the event that he finally manages to lift it, will gather between two and three million Azzurri fans in the streets of the city of the South.
