De Bruyne surprised at idea of being Napoli’s new number 10 🎥 | OneFootball

Great reinforcement for Napoli, De Bruyne became a model for a day by participating in the launch of the new uniforms of the club from Southern Italy (see below).

And he was "shocked" at the thought of being the club's new number 10.

This surprise happened last Tuesday (15th), when he saw such a number on the training uniform.

The number 10 of the current Italian champion has been retired since Maradona's death on November 25, 2020.

But it will not be used again. The Belgian midfielder will only wear this number during training.

A video shows De Bruyne's reaction upon encountering the attire.

You can see him saying "No, no, no".

Until he hears "it's just for training".

Then he "calms down".

Napoli has not yet revealed what De Bruyne's number will be at the club.

He made history wearing the number 17 at Manchester City.

This 🔟 carries WEIGHT!

Maradona reached the status of idol and then legend at Napoli.

It was with him on the field that the club from Southern Italy won its first Italian titles in 1986-1987 and then in 1989-1990.

Maradona also celebrated an Italian Cup, a Super Cup, and a UEFA Cup.

He boasts five of the fourteen trophies the club has in its history.

The then San Paolo was renamed Stadio Diego Armando Maradona after the Argentine's passing at the age of 60.

There are plenty of tributes to the idol in Naples.
