Official: G. Gattuso takes over the reins of "Napoli"

"Napoli" officially confirmed that Gennaro Gattuso is taking over as the team's head coach.

"Napoli" after yesterday's UEFA Champions League match, which ended with a stunning victory for the team, dismissed Carlo Ancelotti. This decision had been brewing for several weeks.

Earlier it was announced that on Monday the president of "Napoli" had a meeting with G. Gattuso, who had been a free agent since the end of last season.

The 41-year-old Italian will take over the reins of "Napoli" until the end of the season with the possibility of extending the cooperation for a longer period.

Since the end of 2017 until last season, G. Gattuso coached the "Milan" team.

The Italian already held his first introductory training session with the "Napoli" team on Wednesday.
