“The President, players and technical staff are indignant at the reiterated attacks from some media, based on allegations or gossip devoid of all foundation.
“Fantastical incidents are described involving many players and their lifestyles, trying to compromise their image and professionalism.
“It becomes paradoxical that we are forced to deny things that are not true. Already yesterday President De Laurentiis confirmed the club does not intend to follow any gossip, because it is confident in the professionalism of its players.
“It’s a shame to see some media today again prove they are clearly affected by an attitude that puts Napoli in the spotlight.
“Napoli will not stand for it. You cannot joke with the professionalism of those who work at Napoli, at all levels, and crush people via imaginative reconstructions.
“Napoli have therefore instructed their lawyers to act in every opportune arena to look after the honour of its players.”
