Napoli will pay their final respects to the late Diego Maradona. Il Partenopei will be the “Argentine national team” against AS Roma.

Maradona shocked the world public when he breathed his last Wednesday (11/25/2020) due to cardiac arrest. The sudden departure of the 60-year-old man saddened many people, especially the citizens of Argentina and Naples.

Not without reason, considering that Maradona has become God to the citizens of Argentina and Naples. Especially in Naples, which by the way is not where Maradona comes from, thanks to him Napoli can win two Scudettos and a UEFA Cup.

There was not enough tribute ceremony when they faced Rijeka in the Europa League, Napoli returned to pay tribute to the late Maradona. When they entertain Roma at San Paolo on Monday (11/30/2020) WIB early in the morning, Napoli will wear a special jersey.

Napoli’s fourth jersey was designed directly by Kappa as the club’s kit sponsor. Napoli’s special jersey will be printed with light blue and white stripes, just like the Argentina jersey.

“A year ago, we, together with Kappa, were thinking of designing a special jersey on the theme of Diego Maradona, beloved Argentina and the close ties with the people of Naples,” said an official statement from Napoli.

“Our hope is that Diego can see it, maybe even use it and share our excitement about it.”

“It was agreed that the new jersey will be presented on matchday 9 of the Serie A season, during the match between SSC Napoli and Roma. The combat jersey that the players will wear tonight means a lot.”

How is the shirt? Let’s wait for the Napoli vs Roma match.
