Ruud Krol praises Napoli centenary, backs Beukema and De Bruyne under Allegri

Former Napoli defender Ruud Krol spoke to Radio Napoli Centrale ahead of the club’s centenary celebrations. He said the upcoming festivities are a great honor and confirmed his attendance at the event.

Krol highlighted the tactical fit of Dutch players Sven Beukema and Noa Lang under coach Raffaele Allegri, noting that both would thrive in a four‑defender system. He added that Allegri’s only mistake was the loss to Milan last season. Krol also mentioned Kevin De Bruyne, suggesting the Belgian could be decisive for Napoli, and recalled Napoli’s injury‑hit campaign that still saw the team finish second.

Overall, Krol expressed confidence in the squad’s depth and the club’s future under Allegri’s leadership.
