Napoli president De Laurentiis hits ultras with price hike after Callejon insult

A furious Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has hiked up ticket prices after seeing fans reject Jose Callejon's shirt last weekend.

Captain for the day, Callejon led Napoli to a 2-0 win over Frosinone - his 300th game for the club.

At the final whistle, the Spaniard threw his shirt into the stands as a momento. But ultras grabbed it and threw it back at Callejon chanting "we deserve more, we deserve more".

The gesture stunned Callejon and his Napoli teammates, while De Laurentiis blew a fuse.

The president has now raised ticket prices for that section of the San Paolo from €14 to €30 for the next game against Atalanta, reports AS .
