It was planned that Romelu Lukaku i Khviča Kvaracheli they wear Napoli which created this summer Antonio Conte, and when it became clear that nothing would come of it, and that Gruzin was leaving from the south of Italy, the Azzurri coach had a plan B ready, which turned out to be quite sufficient for the Scudetto.
The Neapolitans have become champions of Italy for the second time in three years, and the heroes are certainly the Belgian and quite unexpectedly Scott McTominay.
The Scot is waiting for the MVP award after making things easier for the team he plays for for the umpteenth time this season - in the victory over Cagliari, which secured the title, the former Manchester United midfielder scored a goal for 1:0 and did it acrobatically, with a half-scissors from the edge of the box...
McTominay has scored 12 goals and provided four assists in Serie A this season, while Lukaku has scored 14 goals and assisted 10 times. And these figures show who secured the title for Conte, and the Napoli president only spent a few hundred thousand over 60 million euros for the two of them this summer.
We present the players who marked the European football weekend:
THE GOALKEEPER
Falcons (Lens) - Lecce were down to ten men for almost 50 minutes at the Olimpico, Lazio fired with all their might - none of it was enough to defeat the Falcons. Lecce celebrate survival, the "sky blues" will not play in Europe next season.
DEFENSE
Colville (Chelsea) - It's never the same for Chelsea whether they play in the Champions League or not. Thanks to Colville, the elite will be visiting Stamford Bridge in the 2025/26 season.
Hakimi (Paris Saint-Germain) - he helped the "Saints" win all the domestic trophies, now it's their turn to attack the European trophy.
THE MIDDLE
Gindogan (Manchester City) - he scored a masterful goal in the last round of the Premier League against Fulham. When he returned to the Etihad this summer, he certainly did not expect that City would not win a single trophy in the next 12 months.
Mektomine (Naples) - a dream season capped off by the Scudetto - Napoli couldn't have spent 30 million euros better.
Locatelli (Juventus) - he played with oscillations, as did the entire Juventus team. He will be remembered, however, for scoring from the penalty spot and bringing the "old lady" a place in the Champions League.
ATTACK
Lukaku (Napoli) - Conte and he can do a lot together - they proved it during their collaboration in Napoli, which will probably end in a few days when the experienced expert leaves Naples.
Lewandowski (Barcelona) - that it is Hansi Flick Had the Pole been healthy at the end of the season, specifically in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Inter, Barca might be chasing a fourth trophy these days.
Mbappe (Real Madrid) - he didn't win a trophy with the "royal club", but individually he did everything that was asked of him. With 31 goals, he was the top scorer in La Liga.
Ken (Fiorentina) - the absolute boss of "Viola", the only question is how long the club will be able to keep him.
Undav (Stuttgart) - it couldn't have passed without his stamp, the "Slavs" are celebrating their first German Cup trophy in 28 years. AH
