Napoli president De Laurentiis hints at Donadoni dismissal

After defeat to Roma, Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis hinted coach Roberto Donadoni's job is on the line.

“Donadoni has had a wonderful experience and he is an adorable person. He remains an important figure in my football experience, regardless of what will happen tomorrow, the next day or the next month,” said the patron.

“He gave Napoli what he could, is continuing to do so, and has always done his best. I remain impressed by him.

“I make decisions for the good of the club and never in a moment of rage. All of us can make mistakes and the great thing about football is everyone has their own truth.

“I gave myself a couple of months to go to America and work on my films, but I never thought I'd have to run back so quickly to take care of things.

“From now on I will have a more hands-on approach to running this club and will do so with collaborators who work in the De Laurentiis style.”
