In Search of the form: Gonzalo Higuain not succeed at Napoli so much
In the corridor leading players of Napoli at the Stadio San Paolo lawn, resplendent in addition to all kinds of advertising lettering four images of saints. Special protection in the square promises you at the foot of Vesuvius of Our Lady of Pompeii, the city’s patron saint San Gennaro, from ubiquitous in Italy Padre Pio and San Gaetano. If then challenged the president of the association, the uncompromising cinema producer Aurelio De Laurentiis, the gods, it must be a bad way to the club. De Laurentiis is located just a Union suspended as blasphemy. This of course does not prevent him from being always present.
In addition, the ambitious president (21.05 / live in cable 1 and FAZ Live Scores) also extends in front of the guest this Thursday in the quarterfinals of the Champions League at VfL Wolfsburg the criminal training camp for the team. Trigger the reprimand was the 0: 1 home defeat in the Cup semi-final against Lazio last week, according to the De Laurentiis hardly should still have been too tame. How did the local media are safe in Naples, the wrath of the President is particularly true of the most prominent of his kicking demigods: Gonzalo Higuaín. “Notti bravi” were unofficially identified as a motive for disciplinary action, which means as much as around the ears beaten nights. Leading the charge was apparently the 27-year old bachelor from Argentina.
memory of Maradona
Higuaín is considered one of the best strikers in the world. It was for the Tifosi the Gulf half a miracle that the player of the 2014 World Cup with Argentina was second in the summer before joining the burgeoning club from Naples. 37 million euro transfer fee paid De Laurentiis time at Real Madrid, the player he could lure with a net annual salary of 4.5 million euros. Earned more in Serie A supposedly only Daniele De Rossi of AS Roma.

And then there was this particular Argentine-Neapolitan kinship, for Diego Armando Maradona in the 80 years had laid the foundation stone. Since then, it keeps pulling Argentine football to Naples. One of the last was Ezequiel Lavezzi (now Paris Saint-Germain), the Higuaín the club and the city with all its advantages – highly placed his heart
– and dilemmas.
486 minutes without scoring
Apart from a period of weakness that makes him achieve no more goal in five games, Higuaín has lived up to expectations. 24 goals were scored by the striker in the first season for Napoli, this season he has already brought it to a total of 23 Goals in official matches. More than a month ago, he scored all three goals in the Europa League first knockout round against Dynamo Moscow (3: 1).

But the last five games, 486 minutes long, Higuaín not hit the target, apart from a non-recognized hits in Sunday’s 3: 0 win over Fiorentina with Mario Gómez from. As a coach Rafael Benítez his hapless attacker auswechselte in the 75th minute, teammate José Callejón cheered him pointedly. Higuaín should not hang your head, but could leave the square heads held high, he signaled. The Argentine is but arrived in Naples at a low point.
It all depends on Higuain
The mini-crisis of his top player has for Napoli existential dimensions. Thus, the tantrums of the President, not only drew upon the continuing criminal training camp the wrath of the coach and the players but also the players’ wives explain. Napoli reached in the past three years the Champions League twice, before this season, the team failed in the play-offs at Athletic Bilbao. To regain a chance of reaching the Champions League and to the expensive squad finance, Napoli must be at least third in the Serie A. Seven points are missing the fourth-to a poor run in the past games made the minimum goal almost unattainable. And if this is missed, Higuaín has gone virtually certain.
In this respect, the Argentine has its future in their own hands. Rumor toying Higuaín, is still attached to the 2018 SSC Napoli, with a move to Atlético Madrid, as in the Spanish capital still lives part of his family. Various clubs from the Premier League as well as Paris Saint-Germain are interested. If Higuaín so forth is off target, his departure is more likely.
The coach Benítez apparently is already fixed. De Laurentiis is examining various options for succession. This Sinisa Mihajlovic have Sampdoria and Luciano Spalletti obviously the best opportunities. The problem: They also make their commitment depends on whether Higuaín remains
