Napoli’s Lorenzo Insigne says he has ‘apologised to everyone’ for his reaction to being substituted against Palermo last week.

The forward had an angry outburst to being brought off in their 2-0 win, but says everything is now fine after beating Midtjylland 5-0.

The Partenopei’s comfortable win saw them confirm a place in the Europa League last 32 with two games to spare.

"We played a great game as a team. If we continue like this we can go all the way,” he told Sky Sport.

Lorenzo Insigne reportedly apologised to his Napoli teammates in a very Neapolitan way – with pizza.

The striker vented his anger at being substituted in the 2-0 win over Palermo on Wednesday.

Coach Maurizio Sarri said he ought to apologise to the rest of the squad for a lack of respect.

According to the Corriere dello Sport, Insigne did precisely that via a group message on WhatsApp.

He then offered pizza to everyone at the training camp.

Lorenzo Insigne will reportedly be punished for his outburst, dropping to the bench for Napoli’s trip to Genoa.

The forward vented his irritation at being substituted during Wednesday’s 2-0 victory over Palermo at the Stadio San Paolo.

Coach Maurizio Sarri said Insigne should “apologise to his teammates for the lack of respect.”

Cesare Prandelli says that Napoli are ‘the team of the moment’ and praises the ‘democratic and hard’ Maurizio Sarri.

The Partenopei beat Palermo 2-0 last night to record their seventh win in a row in all competitions and are currently in second place in Serie A.

“Napoli are undoubtedly the team of the moment,” Prandelli said in his Calciomercato.com column.

“The fifth consecutive win in the league is giving Sarri’s team great scope, and they’re rightly trying to keep as low a profile as possible.

Maurizio Sarri shrugged off Napoli’s latest triumph, but told Lorenzo Insigne to apologise to his teammates for “lacking respect.”

The Partenopei remain in joint second place with their 2-0 win over Palermo, the ninth victory in 10 games in all competition, their fifth in a row in Serie A.

“Over the years excess has always complicated things in Naples,” Sarri told Sky Sport Italia.

Napoli are unlikely to risk Lorenzo Insigne when Palermo visit San Paolo tonight.

The attacker took a knock to his knee in the win over Chievo on Sunday, with the player’s agent calling for more protection to be given to his client.

Lorenzo Insigne’s agent says the Napoli man must be “protected” from tough tackles on his knee.

The Italian international missed most of last season with a cruciate ligament injury, and has taken  number of blows to the same knee in recent weeks, including Sunday’s match with Chievo.

“I hope these repeated hits to the knee are just a coincidence,” Antonio Ottaiano told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli.

Lorenzo Insigne’s agent believes Napoli can go “all the way” and win the Scudetto this season.

The Partenopei have won five of their last six Serie A games, and currently sit just two points behind Roma at the top of the League.

“I don’t know whether it’s a curse to talk about the Scudetto,” Antonio Ottaiano told Radio Crc.

“I’m of the opinion that it’s always best to remain cautious. There’s one certainty though, Napoli are equipped to go all the way.

Lorenzo Insigne’s agent reaffirms his client’s desire to “stay at Napoli for life”.

The Italian international was born in Naples, and came up through the club’s youth system, and his representative says he’s willing to commit for the rest of his career.

“His contract expires in 2019 and Lorenzo Insigne has repeatedly said that he wants to stay at Napoli for life,” Antonio Ottaiano reminded Radio Crc.
