Conte Rebukes Noa Lang Over Playing-Time Grievances at Napoli

The coach insists the winger must earn his place following a 6-2 defeat to PSV that laid bare tensions over selection.

Overview

Noa Lang said he has only talked to Antonio Conte once since joining Napoli and voiced frustration about limited minutes after the 6-2 loss to former club PSV.
Conte responded that Lang has to work and will only play when the coach decides, noting the winger has not started a match this season.
Lang has made six substitute appearances totaling 110 minutes since his summer move.
The Dutch international was signed for a reported €25 million, while reports differ on whether his contract runs to 2026 or 2030.
Napoli have lost four matches across competitions, including recent defeats to Torino and PSV, and host Inter this weekend.
