Allegri frustrated with Napoli veterans including De Bruyne as warning echoes Conte

According to La Repubblica, Massimiliano Allegri is disappointed with the attitude of several Napoli players, especially the most experienced, and his latest warning echoed a similar message from Antonio Conte a year ago.

"Allegri and Napoli's honeymoon is over," La Repubblica newspaper wrote on Tuesday.

The Partenopei have earned only seven points in the opening five Serie A games of the season, the fewest since the 2015-16 campaign.

Aside from tactical issues and a considerable number of players unavailable, including Scott McTominay , Repubblica notes that the environment behind the scenes at Castel Volturno, Napoli's training centre, is far from ideal.
