Napoli board assures Reja ahead of Juventus clash

Napoli coach Edy Reja has been assured his job is safe - even if they're beaten by Juventus this weekend.

"Does Reja risk the sack? No, I really don't think the match with Juventus can be a crucial stepping stone in this sense," said director general Pierpaolo Marino.

"There is no need to over-dramatise or see everything as pitch black. Napoli are going through a moment of crisis and these things can happen over the course of a campaign.

"It was the same last season too, then we beat Inter - who had not lost in a year - and suddenly overcame our difficulties to qualify for the UEFA Cup."
