Carlo Ancelotti, with his statement regarding the existence of a clause that links him to Naples, beyond the contract, caught everyone a little by surprise. An absolute novelty, until last night, in fact, nothing was ever known about this appendix of the agreement signed last spring with Aurelio De Laurentiis. The issue came out to clear the field of any indiscretion: in the last hours we are talking about a possible involvement of Juventus that would have included in the list of likely Max Allegri substitutes also the name of the Napoli coach. "No, I won't go anywhere, there is no problem. I have a clause that will expire on May 30th, but I have a great time here and I hope that Naples will exercise it, "said Ancelotti answering a question about his future. In fact, the parties guaranteed last June the possibility of closing the report if things did not go as they intended.
But both De Laurentiis and Ancelotti are enthusiastic about each other and the hypothesis of a divorce is absolutely far-fetched. The president will exercise the clause and the relationship with the coach will go on without any problem. For some time now, technical staff and management have been working on the future project. And, then, if Ancelotti wanted to close his relationship with Naples prematurely, he will have to pay a penalty of 12 million euros. These are remote hypotheses, obviously, because the technician has repeatedly stressed the intention of wanting to work in Naples for a long time, there has even been talk of an extension of the current contract, expiring June 2021, and bringing it up to 2023. A even a month ago, Ancelotti did not discard the idea of being tied to life with the blue club. A demonstration of attachment and affection towards the whole environment, including society, reciprocated with the same passion.
