Maksimovich and the prehistory of the rebellion: “Only three or four of us paid the fine”

In an interview given by TMW, Nikola Maksimovich he dwelled at length on the tumultuous weeks of late 2020, culminating in the sacking of Carlo Ancelotti at home at Napoli: “The decision not to retire was ours, the president spoke of a punitive resignation, but we played every three days and we were always on retreat. Why add another 10 days of retreat? For us, everything was not solved like that, and when I say we, I mean not only Nikola Maksimovich, but everyone. Ancelotti saw the unity of the group and gave us support. De Laurentiis misinterpreted this position, he thought that Carlo sided with the players, not him. And so after a while he sent him away… I was very sorry, a man like him would not have deserved it. He did a lot for the Napoli dressing room, for the people who work there. It wasn’t his fault, but it wasn’t the fault of the players either…
