Napoli head coach Antonio Conte commented on the UEFA Champions League match against Chelsea.
Idman.Biz reports that the expert noted the significant difference in transfer opportunities between the two clubs.
If you have the opportunity to spend more than 100 million euros on 22-year-old players... Everyone knows how to buy at these prices, and I would ask my president to do the same. The problem is that only a few people can do this, no one can do it in Italy, but in England, there are those who can go and buy like Real Madrid in Spain. This is a significant investment, and then they say, "we are investing in young players." I understand, but who in Italy would spend 70 million euros on a 16-year-old player? The reality in England is different, completely different from ours. This is how they achieve dominance, and that's what's happening now," Sky Sport Italia quoted Conte as saying.
The Napoli vs Chelsea match will take place on January 28.
After seven rounds of the Champions League main stage, Napoli is in 25th place in the tournament table with eight points.
