Politano's outburst after Porto: who was he referring to? Video analysis

Paolo Di Canio interprets Politano's post-match comments as directed at De Bruyne, suggesting the Belgian midfielder may feel superior to the team's context.

After Napoli's Champions League match against Porto, Matteo Politano made comments in an interview: "I always put my face on the line, I wish some other teammate would come and give explanations, not always us Italians…" Paolo Di Canio, analysing the remarks, believes Politano's words were specifically aimed at Kevin De Bruyne rather than foreign players in general. Di Canio stated: "I don't think he has a problem with foreigners in the squad overall, in my opinion the target of his words is De Bruyne. I said it before: the only issue with the Belgian is that he might feel superior to the context he finds himself in."
