In the Il Mattino, Diego Armando Maradona responded to the “apology” of Lorenzo Insigne: The Neapolitan talent through an interview with the Player’s Tribune, had made headlines for having as a childhood idols other than Maradona.
“You don’t need to excuse yourself. In fact I am sorry that he did not live the moments that his father lived and that they lived Naples and the Neapolitans as I lived them. He had Ronaldo and Ronaldinho as idols because those were the models of his time, but that’s okay. It is right, however, that Lorenzo also knows that we have given happiness to the Neapolitans, and therefore also to his father, to be able to beat Milan by making four goals and Juventus five. These are things that will never be forgotten by anyone. Maradona is of Naples and of the Neapolitans. “
