The ugly scene aired yesterday, and which featured the owner of the Naples, Aurelio De Laurentiis, appearing in front of the Sky cameras to abruptly interrupt the interview that Matteo Politano was giving to satellite TV in view of the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Barcelona, will bring serious consequences for the Italian president. As reported by RepublicIn fact, the matter reached UEFA directly, which is the reseller of the competition’s TV rights, including interview packages.

SKY WAS AUTHORIZED – The fact is known, during the interview with Politano’s Sky, owner De Laurentiis abruptly interrupted his player, accusing the broadcaster’s crew of not being able to speak to the player who was instead authorized to do so only with Gianluca Di Marzio and not with Massimo Ugolini who was present on the field. The problem for the Roman entrepreneur is that Sky has all the necessary permissions to carry out the interviews and decide who is designated to ask the questions. The director in charge of Sky Sport Federico Ferri also clarified this in a note published on X: “Whoever does the Sky Sport interviews is decided by Sky Sport. Speechless for what happened to our journalist and our cameraman: I condemn it without further comments. One thing is certain: we carry on as always, with professionalism, rigor, credibility. And education”.
A MAXI-FINE IS COMING – Unlike what happens in Serie A (and here too De Laurentiis had become the protagonist in the pre-Napoli-Juve of another skirmish against the TVs, that time against Dazn) the rules written by UEFA are certain and cannot be changed. Those who sell TV rights at such high prices make sure that everyone respects them 100% and, if this doesn’t happen, the fines drop. It applies to coaches who don’t speak before and after the game and it also applies to managers like De Laurentiis who will therefore be fined and the amount of the fine will be more than high.
