On September 30, in the sixth round of Serie A, Napoli easily defeated Monza 2-0 at home, successfully claiming the top spot. However, Napoli’s head coach Conte remained calm, stating that Napoli is still far from winning the Serie A title.
Conte talked about Napoli’s advantage being the lack of distraction from European competitions: “If we have any advantage, it’s because we don’t participate in European competitions and can focus on the league. However, our overall strength and squad depth are still not as competitive as those teams participating in Europe. We must strive hard in every match and give our all to secure victories.”
Conte stated that the current Napoli is not yet capable of challenging for the Serie A title: “I am aware of the high expectations people have of me due to my past successes. But as I said, fans can dream of winning the championship, but I need to be realistic. In reality, many teams are stronger than us, and we need to make our utmost effort to catch up with them.”
Conte then spoke about the season’s goals: “My goal is to make Napoli competitive again. Do not forget that last season the team finished tenth in the league, 40 points behind champions Inter Milan.”
