De Laurentiis does an Oasis: 'Pavoletti joining? Definitely Maybe!'
Rumoured to be on the brink of signing with the Partenopei, the Sassuolo striker would help deputize for Arkadiudsz Milik, whose ACL tear should keep him out until February at the very earliest.
Beyond providing some comfort on Milik’s situation (“he’s already running”), Napoli’s chairman seemed to give fans some certainty, before pulling the rug from their feet...
“The fans want to know if Pavoletti is joining in January? Definitely! Maybe…” he told "Edizione Fiore" (via Il Mattino).
And it didn’t end there, the film producer taking a shot at former star Gonzalo Higuain, who left for Juventus this summer for a bank-breaking €90 million, and whose recent brace against Torino kept Juventus four points clear of second-place Roma, and eight of Napoli, who are fourth.
“I still send Higuain friarelli (broccoli), he always eats them and scores, but less than he did when he was here…”
What a guy!
