Mauro Meluso speaks for the first time after leaving Napoli. The former Napoli sporting director expressed himself on the Osimhen affair and more: “Osimhen? We made some mistakes in the Osimhen management. I arrived in Naples in mid-July and I knew there had been a very high offer from one of the biggest teams in Europe. In hindsight we are all good, but maybe we could have sold him. Zielinski? We lost him on a free transfer and we could have done something more, I take responsibility for that. What led to losing Zielinski could also be economic considerations, there were various situations.
I have had a great relationship with almost all the players, even the most reserved ones, and I can say that no one got a big head after the Scudetto. The Napoli locker room is full of human values. Of course, people are interested in the sporting result. Can the cycle start again? Yes, in my opinion, because the church has been put back in the center of the village. Conte must not be a lightning rod, but he has the sense of victory that is needed to recover immediately, I am convinced of this. Spinazzola, Buongiorno, Rafa Marin are excellent players who will help”.
