Diego Simeone moved from Verona to Napoli last summer and already feels confirmed in his choice. The Argentina striker referred to Maradona’s stamp on the Partenopei’s DNA in an interview.
Diego Simeone left Verona on loan (with an option to buy) for Napoli last summer and has been more than happy in his first few months in southern Italy as the Argentine striker claims the Partenopei have something unique. Diego Maradona.
“It’s wonderful. Everyone here is talking about Diego. Everyone is telling you that they have had an experience with Diego. They are passionate about it, as if it happened to them yesterday and it was probably 30 years ago.
Diego isn’t here, but it’s like he’s with us.”he emphasized in an interview with his home newspaper “La Nacion”, adding:
“The world still suffers from the difference between North and South. Diego saved it from oblivion. It’s a city full of passion and it’s a point of pride for them to have Maradona.
He is the one who gave them light and hope and convinced them that they could handle the strong Italian North. They tell you that every day. He left his mark everywhere.
Now there are people who say to me: “Since Italy are not at the World Cup, we will all be at Argentina.”
On how he feels playing for Napoli he said: “There was something inside me that told me to go to Napoli, I had to come here.
At some point the negotiations got stuck, but I didn’t deviate an inch from my wish, I wanted to go to Napoli.”
It should be noted that the 27-year-old son of Diego Simeone has made 8 games and scored 3 goals for Napoli, most recently against Ajax at the “Johan Cruyff Arena” last Tuesday (04/10), which was also the first time on Champions -League level.

Incredibly, Mourinho, he sang it to Kvaratshelias and was hugging and kissing him within 10 seconds
An incredible scene took place in the first 45 minutes of the Roma-Napoli game in which Jose Mourinho first theatrically cheered Kvaratshelias and then hugged and kissed him within ten seconds.
Incredible scene in Rome – Napoli where Jose Mourinho first chants Quaratschelia and then within ten seconds hugs, kisses and talks to him as if he were his father.
In the 37th minute of the game, the Georgian international earned a foul and a yellow card from his opponent, in a phase that took place in front of Mourinho, who insisted that there was not even a foul.
Afterwards, the Portuguese technician initially shouted at Kvaratshelias, telling him that he was just acting, but as he approached Georgianos, he hugged him, kissed him and began talking to him in a very calm tone while the two men found each other. A little later, the recording showed Mourinho having a very friendly chat with Osimen.
