For calcio Napoli latest arrives already on the next league match, the very delicate challenge at the Olimpico against Lazio.

A small record that only the biancocelesti will carry over until the end of the season, since Verona and Atalanta have already lost in the second encounter with the partenopei.

La Lazio perde Dia: la mossa di Baroni contro il Napoli
In the super challenge scheduled in four days, Marco Baroni will almost certainly have to do without Boulaye Dia.

Losing him, therefore, will be a not inconsiderable tile for the Lazio coach.
