At home in Naples, in anticipation of Saturday’s match against Inter, important statements from Buongiorno must be recorded.
After earning three consecutive draws, in fact, Antonio Conte’s Napoli fell back in the league after more than two months. Last Sunday, in fact, the Neapolitan team fell in Como 2-1 against Cesc Fabregas’ team.
With this knockout, given Inter’s hard-fought success the previous day at the San Siro Stadium against Genoa, Napoli arrives at next Saturday’s direct clash at the Maradona as second in the standings with a one-point disadvantage. Despite this, Alessandro Buongiorno made some unsettling statements about the challenge against the Nerazzurri.
Napoli, Buongiorno: “Il match con l’Inter non è decisivo per lo scudetto”
The central, exactly at the official microphones of ‘Sky Sport Italia’, in fact made these statements:
“Match against Inter? Complicated and tough match, but I don’t feel like talking about the Scudetto because the championship is still long. But it is definitely a very important match. My injury? Staying out is always complicated, since I couldn’t help my teammates. The field, of course, I missed it. A stop can happen, but it is always difficult to deal with it. Now, however, I am happy to be back.”

Alessandro Buongiorno then continued his speech:
“My impact with the Napoli jersey was very strong, but I try to give 100 percent both in training and in the game. In this team there are important players and you should not take yourself for granted. I’m happy with what I’m doing, I hope to continue like this. Koulibaly and Kim? They are great champions. They made the history of this club. I try to grow to make my contribution.”
Buongiorno: “Ecco come come Conte prepara le partite”
The player also spoke about his grandparents’ Campania origin:
“In the summer we often came to both Naples and Campania to visit them. They passed on the Neapolitan and Campanian culture to me. I already had a strong connection with this city. My grandparents were overjoyed when they learned that I would become a Napoli player.”

Buongiorno then concluded his interview this way:
“The secret to having the best defense along with Juve’s? The cooperation of the whole team in both phases. You have to have a team spirit to achieve such goals. This is the priority thing. Verona-Napoli? That match was important, as it triggered something in our heads and hearts. That match was a turning point. How does Conte prepare for matches? We study each match as if it were a final. We only think about that match. We watch videos and prepare tactically. Anguissa and McTominay? They are really key players, they help out in both offense and defense. But the most important thing is the teamwork, even of those who stay on the bench on Sunday.”
