Giovanni Manna, Napoli’s sporting director, shared his thoughts with DAZN before their crucial match against Roma. Addressing the title race, Manna emphasized the importance of consistency: “Daily work and each positive result increase this group’s confidence. We must remain focused and think about one match at a time.”
Regarding the transfer market, Manna acknowledged the challenges: “It was a complicated transfer window. We had to sell one of our best players. We’re working on it.”
When asked about Comuzzo, a promising young talent, Manna expressed interest but cautioned: “Comuzzo is a player with great potential. We’re interested but in no hurry. We don’t want to exceed our financial parameters or the player’s value.”
The conversation then turned to Saint-Maximin, a potential target for Napoli. Manna was cautious but optimistic: “We’ve certainly lost an important player. We started with significant objectives, but January transfers are complicated. We’ve done our best. He’s not our player yet, we’re working on it and we’ll see what happens. It’s a bit complicated.”
Responding to Inter’s draw, Manna reiterated the team’s focus: “We remain concentrated, and that’s not just a platitude. We’ve proven to be a team with great personality, reflecting our coach. We don’t think about others who are ahead in their journey. We’re showing we can compete with them. Whether we’re ahead or behind doesn’t change our approach.”
