More than 10,000 fans received the Napoli footballers this Monday morning at the international airport of this city in southern Italy, after the agonizing 1-0 victory against Juventus that brings them closer and closer to the Serie A title .
The arrival was triumphant for the squad and the coaching staff at the Capodichino aerodrome, where thousands of fans were waiting for them, in what seems like a preview of the massive festivities that are expected when Los Azules secure a historic Scudetto, 33 years after that Diego Maradona got the last one.

Others, on the other hand, went out to celebrate through the streets of the city with songs, horns, fireworks and light blue flags.
After landing at 2:30 in the morning, the players got on the club's bus, which had a hard time leaving the airport due to the number of people around it.
The Azzurri players joined in the celebrations, Osimen and Kvaratskhelia, the two stars of Luciano Spalletti's team, climbed on the roof of the bus to greet the thousands of fans.

With 7 dates to go, Napoli, which has 78 points, can become champion on Saturday, due to the wide advantage it has over Lazio, which has 61 points.
In this way, if Napoli beat Salernitana next weekend and Lazio does not beat Inter in Milan, the Neapolitan club will mathematically secure the Serie A title.
The president of the institution, Aurelio De Laurentiis, said a few weeks ago that the celebration of the 'Scudetto' of his team, in the event that he finally manages to lift it, will gather between two and three million 'azzurri' fans in the streets of the southern city .
