After Napoli’s victory against Hellas Verona at the weekend, Walter Mazzarri’s men continue to gain confidence ahead of the clash against Barça in the round of 16 of the Champions League. Although for Alessandro Del Piero, legendary captain of Juventus and world champion with Italy, the Neapolitans do not have much to do in the continental competition.
In ‘Sky Calcio Club’, Del Piero analyzed the situation of Piotr Zielinski, who was excluded from the Champions League list by Napoli due to his possible departure to Inter. “In his place I would have taken it, from the player’s point of view it is obvious that you are not happy.”
Then, ‘Pinturicchio’ took away many of the Neapolitans’ chances in the competition: “There’s the championship too. I don’t think Napoli will go very far in the Champions League, so they should aim to finish fourth in Serie A. and they still don’t have that guaranteed,” he pointed out.
Mazzarri’s men continue doing their thing, focusing on the momentous duel they will have against Milan on Sunday. The big objective is, with this clash and the next one against Genoa, return to the European positions before facing Barça in the round of 16 first leg, on February 21 at the Diego Armando Maradona.
