Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis is coming under growing pressure from local fans.
Defeat to Chievo Verona has widened the gulf between De Laurentiis and Napoli ultras, frustrated over their lack of big spending this past summer transfer window.
Bundled out of the Champions League by Athletic Bilbao and with a Scudetto challenge now looking unlikely, Napoli fans are becoming increasingly angry with De Laurentiis' management, reports Il Mattino today.
Protests were staged during the Chievo defeat at the San Paolo over the movie mogul's "thrifty" ways.
For his part, Napoli coach Rafa Benitez has called for calm and urged supporters to remember how far they've come under De Laurentiis' stewardship.
