Koulibaly: No Naples Story Fails to Win Again

Napoli center back, Kalidou Koulibaly, believes this season can be owned by his team to win the title. For him, the defeat of Juventus at the start of the season is very much not a benchmark for who can win at the end of the season.

Napoli have forever failed to overtake Juventus in the hunt for titles in more than one season. This season, the two teams have met once and ended in victory for the Bianconeri. But for Koulibaly, there was no reason to return to Il Partenopei for failure.

"If you ask who can win this year, know Napoli. As a reporter, you can write that. We sure can make it happen. Losing more than one match in Turin next is not like an impression on our minds. After all, the competition has just begun, "he said as quoted by Football Italia.

"I witnessed it myself with my eyes and head. Naples is the best area in the world for football. When I scored an own goal against Juventus, many people made fun of me. But after that I got up and I got the gift back, "he continued.

It's been two weeks of Serie A rolling, Napoli remain scattered in 10th place. The results of one win and one defeat. After an international pause, Carlo Ancelotti's men can face Sampdoria in San Paolo.

Four days later, Napoli can face Liverpool against the Champions League opener. Last season, the two teams including facing each other in the preliminary round and Koulibaly et al successfully won over the following representatives of England when playing at home.
