After a troubled start to the season under Roberto Donadoni, Napoli have blossomed since Walter Mazzarri took over. The former Sampdoria coach has earned 10 points in his first four matches in charge, the highlight coming last weekend with a 3-2 comeback victory against Juventus.

President Aurelio De Laurentiis is ecstatic about the team's current form and has said he has no intention of letting go of the club anytime soon.

"I would never sell this club," he said to Porta a Porta, "not even to a sheik. Napoli are Napoli.

"Napoli are the fourth most supported club in Italy. It's our duty to work for these fans, because before now we haven't really achieved that much."

Currently Napoli are in sixth place on the Serie A table, with 17 points.
