Badiashile suffers nightmare Napoli debut as Chelsea loanee slammed: ‘His fault’

Benoît Badiashile, the Chelsea loanee, endured a disastrous debut for Napoli in their Serie A match against Inter. The French centre-back was heavily criticized by Italian sports newspapers for his performance, with the loss attributed, in part, to his mistakes. After coming off the bench to play the last ten minutes, Badiashile was blamed for two of Inter's goals.

Both Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martinez scored while Badiashile was unable to hold his position, resulting in a 3-2 defeat. Football Italia, Gazzetta dello Sport, Tuttosport, Corriere dello Sport, and others all rated Badiashile poorly, with the lowest score being 4.5/10. Napoli's manager Massimiliano Allegri was also criticized for bringing on Badiashile at that crucial moment.

The loan deal, which was agreed upon at the start of the season, allows Napoli to make Badiashile's move permanent for a fee of €27 million at the end of the campaign.
