Italy Just won Serie A together, but coach Luciano Spalletti is likely to leave Napoli due to conflicts with President Aurelio De Laurentiis.
According to Corriere della Sera , De Laurentiis and Spalletti have not spoken to each other since Napoli won the Italian championship for the first time in 33 years on May 4. The newspaper asserts that the 64-year-old coach will not work with the Diego Maradona Stadium team after the end of this season.

De Laurentiis also did not congratulate Spalletti after he helped Napoli win the scudetto. According to Corriere della Sera , this detail clearly shows the conflict between the two most powerful figures of the southern Italian club.
Spalletti did not attend the press conference on May 18, before the match against Inter - the team he used to coach. Goalkeeper Alex Meret attended the meeting instead. Also at this meeting, Laurentiis announced important information such as the club's celebration plan and the preparation plan for next season. However, the Napoli president did not mention Spalletti.
Gazzetta dello Sport believes Rafael Benitez is a potential replacement if Spalleti leaves. The Spaniard managed Napoli from 2013 to 2015, helping the club win the Coppa Italia in 2014. He is currently unemployed after being sacked by Everton in January last year. The newspaper claims that negotiations between Benitez and De Laurentiis have already begun.
Meanwhile, another Italian newspaper, Tuttosport , believes that Antonio Conte is leading the race to replace Spalleti.
