Napoli's fourth Scudetto: ex-United MVP, Conte-Lukaku duo on fire 🔥
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇧🇷 here.
The fourth Scudetto in Napoli's history celebrated at the Diego Armando Maradona has some highlights.
One of them involves midfielder Scott McTominay.
Then a player for Manchester United, he arrived at the club in southern Italy on August 30 of last year for 30.5 million euros.
Not only did he deliver the football that was expected of him after "leaving his comfort zone", but he was also voted the BEST player of Serie A 2024/2025.
He was already coming from a top-scoring season with the Red Devils, but he outdid himself this time: 13 goals and four assists.
Highlight for the (beautiful) goal that opened the scoring in the already historic 2 x 0 win over Cagliari this Friday (23).

Conte and Lukaku 🤜🏽🤛🏽
The uncertainty about Osimhen's future led Napoli to pursue an old acquaintance of Antonio Conte.
Lukaku was coming from a season on loan at Roma and returned to Chelsea.
He was not in the English club's plans for 2024/2025 and reunited with the coach with whom he shone at Inter after 64 goals and 17 assists in 95 games.

Napoli paid 30 million euros to keep the Belgian permanently.
And they certainly found it "cheap".
Romelu Menama Lukaku Bolingoli scored fourteen times in the conquest of Serie A. And he was "just" the player with the most assists: ten.
He scored the second goal against Cagliari. Which came "in the best Lukaku style", leaving Mina twisted.
And he only didn't contribute with the 11th decisive pass, because Sherri made a great save on David Neres' shot.

Conte is also, by far, one of the great names of this historic feat.
He became the first coach to win the Italian championship with three different teams.

He dealt with the sale of Kvaratskhelia in the middle of the season, suffered from injuries, but smiled in the end after rebuilding the squad.
But he is not yet certain to stay for 2025/2026.
It was a historic campaign.
And it could certainly become a movie in the hands of president Aurelio De Laurentiis.
Who celebrates his 75th birthday on this May 24 - which has already arrived in Italy.
