  • Società Sportiva Calcio Napoli, commonly referred to as Napoli (pronounced [ˈnaːpoli]), is an Italian professional football club based in Naples, Campania that plays in Serie A, the top flight of Italian football.

  • The performance of Napoli in the Italian football league structure since the first season of a unified Serie A (1929/30).
  • The club was formed in 1926 as Associazione Calcio Napoli following the merger of U.S. Internazionale Napoli and Naples Foot-Ball Club.
  • Napoli saw relatively little success in its early years, winning one Coppa Italia in 1962.
  • Napoli then saw increased success in the 1980s, after the club acquired Diego Maradona.
  • During his time in Naples, Maradona helped the team win several trophies, which led to the club retiring his number 10 jersey.

  • Following his departure, however, Napoli struggled financially, and endured several relegations and a bankruptcy, prior to being re-founded in 2004 by film producer Aurelio De Laurentiis.
  • Under his leadership, the club has stabilized, which has led to renewed on-field success, winning the 2012, 2014, and 2020 Coppa Italia titles.
