Conte: Winning two Serie A titles with Napoli a tough challenge | OneFootball

Saturday at 6 pm the Napoli will make its debut in the 2025/2026 Serie A. In front of them, the newly promoted Sassuolo, which has a clear goal of wanting to maintain the category, as demonstrated by the club's neroverde purchasing campaign. The blues, moreover, have not yet completed their market: first and foremost, the need for a new striker to replace the injured Lukaku, an attacking outsider, and the right back. Antonio Conte spoke to the microphones of Sport Mediaset about the start of the new season.

Conte to Mediaset: "Me being the first to win two Scudetti at Napoli? A very difficult challenge"

Napoli is ready to make its debut in the 2025/2026 Serie A, with the Scudetto sewn on its chest. The blues will be guests on Saturday at 6 pm at the Mapei Stadium, of Fabio Grosso's Sassuolo. They will go without Romelu Lukaku, Antonio Conte's first man of trust, who will be out for the first part of the season. The Apulian technician intervened with the microphones of Sport Mediaset. These are his words:

"Me being the first to win two Scudetti with Napoli? The fact that someone could be the first coach to win two Scudetti with Napoli means that before no one has ever done it, so this already explains the difficulty of doing this thing and we must stay calm. It's a very, very difficult goal, we'll see what happens this year and we'll stay calm. We fly low and let others talk. We have to do the deeds."

Napoli favorite for the title?

"I don't think the coach should answer this question, there are experts and they make their own grids and say if we are complete or not. In the preseason, everyone says they have worked well. We have also worked, but now we have to bring everything to the field. I'm not interested in who the opponents are. What matters is that others can see Napoli as an opponent in the fight for the Scudetto."

About De Bruyne

"He immediately understood the difference between Napoli and City. He was very humble, attentive, and intelligent. He fit perfectly into the environment."

About Lucca

"He was taken because we hope he can help the team. We took him to make him grow behind Lukaku and we'll see how much time it will take and how much he can give us."

Francesco Landi
