Allegri addresses Fabregas tension, comments on Badiashile's status

Napoli manager Massimiliano Allegri held a press conference ahead of the upcoming home match against Como on August 30, emphasizing his team's readiness despite current fitness challenges. He addressed tensions with Como manager Cesc Fabregas from the past season but stated there are no ongoing issues. Concern was raised regarding new signing Benoît Badiashile, who Allegri noted is 'a bit behind' due to limited training time with the team after his transfer from Chelsea. Allegri expressed satisfaction with the current squad and indicated that no new players would be sought unless they contributed significantly to the team’s technical level. Napoli recently secured a 2-0 victory against Genoa, and Allegri is looking forward to starting their Champions League campaign against Arsenal shortly after the match with Como.
