Napoli: De Bruyne openly criticizes Conte and discusses his difficulties
By OnzeActu · · 4 min read
Although Napoli's season ended with a second place finish and an Italian Super Cup, Kevin De Bruyne publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with Antonio Conte's tactical approach. The Belgian playmaker points out differences in philosophy and the lack of use in his real position on the pitch.
Despite a generally positive season ending in second place in the championship and capped by a victory in the Italian Super Cup, Napoli also experienced internal turmoil. As reported by the Neapolitan edition of La Repubblica this morning, it was Kevin De Bruyne who came out of silence to express his discomfort under the leadership of Antonio Conte.
The Belgian did not mince his words: “For me, it was complicated, because Conte has a very different vision of football from mine. I almost never had the opportunity to play my favorite position. Despite this, I always gave everything for the team. »

This statement highlights persistent tensions between the Napoli playing master and the former coach, whom De Bruyne did not regret seeing leave at the end of the season. This testimony confirms that, on an individual level, the season has not been easy despite collective satisfaction.
It remains to be seen what impact these criticisms will have on the future Neapolitan staff and the place that De Bruyne will occupy next season.
