Aurelio De Laurentiis announced that Napoli have re-enthused "millions of children" to support the club after receiving CONI's highest honour. The prestigious Collare d’Oro al Merito Sportivo was presented to the president at a ceremony in Rome, acknowledging the club’s growth under De Laurentiis’ leadership since 2004. Under his stewardship, Napoli secured two Serie A titles in 2023 and 2025, and have become consistent contenders in European competitions.
Napoli marked their 100th anniversary this year, prompting De Laurentiis to work on a centenary film. The club president shared his optimism, stating that Naples can once again be considered "the queen of Europe." He emphasized that the award symbolizes the club’s resilience and serves as inspiration for younger supporters, who had previously been more inclined towards rival teams.
De Laurentiis defended the club’s management, including head coach Massimiliano Allegri, while contract negotiations with Scott McTominay continue.
