Former Napoli defender Ruud Krol reiterated his support for the club’s centenary celebrations, confirming his attendance and again praising the tactical fit of Dutch players Sven Beukema and Noa Lang under coach Massimiliano Allegri. He added that Kevin De Bruyne could be decisive for Napoli and noted that Allegri’s only misstep was the loss to Milan last season, while expressing confidence in the squad’s depth.

Sam Beukema, after recovering from a lingering physical issue, reported feeling good in training and lauded Allegri as a “great trainer” from whom he can learn. He emphasized Napoli’s aim to return to the Champions League by March and reiterated his dream of winning the Scudetto, stressing his desire to re‑join the team on the pitch.

These updates continue to track Napoli’s centenary preparations, player fitness progress, and the club’s ambition to compete for domestic and European honors under Allegri’s leadership.
