Cholito Simeone, a 'Partenopei' legend!
Giovanni Simeone has done it again! ‘Cholito’ is part, for the second time, of the ‘Scudetto’ champion team with Napoli, further consolidating the special bond between Argentina and the Italian city.
As a few years ago, an Argentine player has been crucial in the historic conquest of a title that was resisted. While Maradona’s impact on Naples is unmatched, ‘Cholito’s’ contribution is another example of the football connection between the two countries.
Although his role this season was smaller compared to the previous one, his professionalism, work and dedication in every minute have been fundamental to the team. The coach highlighted his constant improvement and commitment.
The legacy of his father, Diego Pablo Simeone, also a champion in Italy, is an inspiration. ‘Cholito’ follows in the footsteps of other great Argentine players who triumphed in the ‘calcio’, such as Diego Milito, Javier Zanetti, Carlos Tévez or Batistuta.
Since arriving in Naples, Simeone has demonstrated his commitment and desire to live up to the history of the club. His father was thrilled to learn that he would wear the shirt that belonged to Maradona. ‘Cholito’ arrived with the ambition to give his all and be part of a winning team. And he has succeeded! With two ‘Scudetti’ in his record, Giovanni Simeone is already part of the history of Naples. A ‘Colchonero’ pride in Italy!
